Project talk:Rally-2011-12

These are the results of the translatewiki.net December 2011 Transation Rally. These results are final.

38 users have made 500 or more contributions during the rally. Another great after the two previous successful Translation Rallies in 2011. The scope was still relatively narrow (Kiwix, Wikipedia Mobile, MediaWiki and MediaWiki extensions used by Wikimedia) for what translatewiki.net has to offer, so we'll be sure to try and continue these types of events in 2012, and we hope for your continued support!

• Total new in-scope translations during rally: 44,681
• Total active in-scope translators during rally: 192
• Languages contributed to: 121

And these are the contribution counts for all qualifying users that each get a EUR 25.00 cut (including transfers costs). Ansumang has made the most qualified contributions during the rally and qualifies for an additional EUR 50,00 cut. Congratulations and many, many thanks to all translatewiki.net translators for making such an enormous difference for non-English users of Kiwix, Wikipedia Mobile and MediaWiki! If we do not have your payment details yet, we will request those from you by e-mail within a week or two. I'm pretty swamped with work right now, so please "don't be hatin'" if I'm going to be a little late...

Wow!

This is awesome! I got lot of new translations to review.

I did my best for sinhala language translations, but i'm not a native speaker of Afrikaans and i didn't cheated in this rally. I think my Afrikaan translations are correct more than 70% percent.

Look at those results. More than 10 users limits there translations for 500 only, because they want to get there Bounty, Not to continue there translation for long time. Now look at me, I didn't stop my translation for Sinhala when i complete my 500 messages. I don't work for only money. If my Afrikaan translations are bad, I'm sorry.

However, our translations are 99% accurate and doublechecked.

... or there were just about 5 hundred messages left to translate into their languages ;)

True... :D

Excuse me, the rally has been over for almost a month and the Handling Page has not been created yet. Is everything OK there?

Okay yes and also still too busy. GerardM is now preparing to contact you. That should happen within the next week.

 Done every participant has been send a mail.

Thank you so very much. Just saw the results, Happy :) I am grateful to Wikimedia Nederland, Dutch Wikimedia chapter, Stichting Open Progress and the Translatewiki.net Team (especially Siebrand and Gerard). Thanks for your support. Thanks to all who participated. Congrats. Cheers :)

With a little over 48 hours to go, this is the current top 3:

1. පසිඳු කාවින්ද: 2638
2. Ansumang: 2511
3. Lam-ang: 2217

Please remember that quality should prevail above quantity at all times (!). Thanks go out to the above three users, but also to all 178 users participating in this rally so far!

I have finished translating 510 messages, but cannot claim my cut because this page is protected. Maybe because I have signed up recently? Could someone please add me and count me? (user "Blahma" with "Please transfer my cut to me"). Thank you! Blahma (talk) 20:41, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

 Done

Thanks a lot!

Google translate doesn´t work for some reason. Could you fix it? I sometimes look translation tips from it.

See Thread:Support/Question_about_Google_Translation.

Any idea why the Extensions used by Wikimedia are not counted? They are all striked...

I'll get that fixed. Don't worry.

They are counted for me in the overview page (only visible for users member of the staff group), so that's the first worry out of the way. Now I need to fix it for everyone else :).

I've made a few translations, and I don't see the problem. Feel free to e-mail me a screenshot.

I've sent an email.

However I've translated a message with "apisb-" prefix and it counted.

Should be fixed now. Only messages inside of group ext-0-wikimedia-main were not counted. The rest was.
