-====== Transifex ====== 
-Transifex is the plaftorm for translators and project maintainers installed at [[https://translations.xfce.org/|translations.xfce.org]]. It gives the possibility to upload translations through a simple form instead of learning technical tools. 
- 
-===== Statistics ===== 
-Transifex provides statistics per languages, per projects and per collections. The Xfce collection view is the most interesting as it lets you know if the main projects are fully translated. When you are in a collection view and you click on one of the languages you will get a page with the statistics of the language for all the different projects of the corresponding collection. It is also possible to get to such a page by going to the [[https://translations.xfce.org/languages/|languages page]] first and picking up your language than a collection. The collection "Xfce" has several components for the different stable versions (**xfce-4.4**, **xfce-4.6**, etc) and one for the development branch (**master**). The other collections, for example Applications, have usually only development components as they aren't part of any official Xfce releases. 
- 
-===== Registering ===== 
-On the main page of Transifex click the [[https://translations.xfce.org/accounts/register/|Register link]] and fill in your desired username and email. You will get a verification email with a validation link. After this is done, send a mail on the [[http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-i18n|i18n mailing-list]] and ask to be added to the "translators" group so that you have upload rights. 
- 
-Once you are logged in, don't forget to set your real name on the [[https://translations.xfce.org/accounts/profile/|profile page]] by clicking your username on the top right corner, otherwise your submitted translation will be rejected! 
- 
-For multiple translators of a single language it is interesting to share the work and/or to design a proof-reader. A team page can be created on this wiki, see the [[language_maintainers|teams entry page]]. 
- 
-===== Downloading Translations ===== 
-You can visualize and download po files from existing translations. For that just go to a project page or select a collection from the languages page, than click one of the small buttons at the right of the statistics. If there is no current translation you can download the source file (the po template) available on each project page. Also when you are on a collection view you have at the bottom of the statistics table a download section with zip files. 
- 
-===== Uploading Translations ===== 
-When you are identified on Transifex and have the upload rights it is very simple to upload new translations. Go to a project and choose the component that corresponds to a stable version or to the development branch --- you can pass through the collection page to find a project --- then click on the small Upload button besides the visualize/download buttons at the right of your language or the "Add new translation" button at the bottom. Fill in the form and click the Send button.
