I hereby apply for rights to the Translation Administrator group... I have already translated a number of things and would like to expand or introduce other translation systems --Justman10000 (talk) 12:02, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- What other translation systems do you want to "expand or introduce" specifically? --MF-W 13:27, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Well, existing ones. Well, in this sense there is only one system, but i would want to make pages translatable and extend existing translatable pages Justman10000 (talk) 13:32, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Then what does "extend existing translatable pages" mean? So far you have not provided a use case for why you need the rights. In your edits I also see that you translated existing pages, but are not working on new pages which might need translations in the future or have ever prepared a page for translation. - I will leave it to others to ask specific questions about how to prepare pages for translation, but I did just spend half an hour fixing some translations you made (misleading literal translation, no consistency, "patroller" was translated as several different words, grammatical errors again no consistency in translating one and the same English term) and am not impressed; if this is the accuracy we could expect from your translation admin actions, it is not promising. --MF-W 14:10, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- The linguistic quality of translations has nothing to do with suitability for translation adminship, and in fact I earned the translation admin right here despite not translating any content at all. * Pppery * it has begun 19:12, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose Renumbering translation units is a total deal-breaker here. * Pppery * it has begun 19:12, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
