hi @BatoolMM i am currently translating the documents under Reproducible Research |
|
@Khadeeejah reproducible research is almost completed audited. Can you try audit the translation for the videos (e.g. Open Hardware) from here: https://crowdin.com/project/ols3 |
|
Okay I'll do that @BatoolMM thank you |
|
Good morning @BatoolMM the files in the open hardware folder are showing green checks and shows translated by you a year ago, but i am unable to see the remaining files that have not been transcribed, is it possible for us to jump on a short meeting at a convinient time for you for me to have a proper sync, as i have read through the docs and need some clarity, Thank you for your time. |
|
Hello @BatoolMM Thank you for accepting my request to join the Crowdin team. It seems all the files have been 100% translated, to be clear is it approving/auditing the translations you want us to work on? |
|
Welcome @rnabage, yes, only approving/auditing the translations is what we are looking for now! Indicate in the issue which file are you working on! Looking forward to see the auditing! |
|
Thank you @BatoolMM . I'm be working on the 'REDME-for-Open-Projects' file. I think there has been a typo in the title of the file which should be 'README-for-Open-Projects' but I don't know how to edit a file name on Crowdin. |
|
Hi @rnabage, don't worry about the file name. Looking forward to see your work! |
BatoolMM
changed the title

Welcome @xiaodaiweiwei, this task is for individuals who are fluent in Arabic but you are welcome to work on other tasks in https://github.com/Open-Science-Community-Saudi-Arabia#12 but there is an open issue here, which you are welcome to work on it with @Khadeeejah . @Khadeeejah You are welcome to work on other videos or the issue mentioned. We were supposed to have a Zoom session for Q/As today at 12:10pm UTC, but we had to postpone it till Tuesday at the same time. This was outside our control, but we are happy to answer questions regarding anything. We are also reviewing all your wonderful PRs. All of your contributions will be recorded and acknowledged in our README file. Thank you again for you all your amazing work 🌷 |

Hello @BatoolMM and @Khadeeejah , this is my first time contributing to open source so I'm a bit stuck on how to create the pull request with the documentation on how to use Crowdin and I want to be sure I'm doing it right. I created a fork of this repository and created the ruqayyah_docs.md file and added just the title. I tried clicking create pull request after this to test out and try to see if it'll appear under the pull requests of this repository but it didn't appear. When I'm done adding the documentation please how do I make it appear in the pull requests under this issue? Thank you. |
|
@rnabage I can put you through on how to go about it please send me a mail , so that I can setup a Google meet with you ([email protected]) |
Okay, thank you |
|
@rnabage Thank you for your work, no worries, a few people also struggles with making a PR. This video go through the steps, let me know if you are still struggling |
|
Thank you @BatoolMM ! I've managed to create the pull request. |
|
Hello @BatoolMM , Good evening. I've finished translating the file I've been working on, if you could please review and revert? Also, please how do I record my work on Crowdin as a contribution on the Outreachy page? |
|
Thank you @rnabage, we will review your PR. You should log in to Outreachy and fill in the questions about your contribution, then your name will appear to us! Let me know if you still struggling! |
|

Hey @BatoolMM in this comment you mentioned that the meeting is today by 12:10pm UTC, could we have the link to the meeting please? Or has there been a new development? Thank you. |

Welcome @Rubadel to OSCSA, you were added to Crowdin. Le me know if you have any questions! @Khadeeejah @rnabage I am sorry you couldn’t join the meeting today, just saw your messages. This is the Slides we used during the meeting. Let me know if you have any questions! |
|
Hi @BatoolMM the link is pointing to the zoom meeting and not slides, kindly check |
|
Thank you for catching it up, it's fixed now! |
|
Hi @BatoolMM. I'm an Outreachy applicant. will start working on the task. |
|
Welcome @ThanaMeri 🌷 |
|
I will start working on Open-Data file. @BatoolMM |
|
Hello @BatoolMM Could I ask about what I am doing, because I need to be sure if it is right.. I have join in the project in the crowding, and select the language I want then in this page
I select a file and go through vote for the best suggestion of the translation or add new one is better than of the existing translation for each sentence of the video.. Is it right? |
Hi, yes you are on the right path, you just have to audit/ approve the translation, see if there are error too. |
|
well, Thank you Khadeeejah |
Fork and clone the repo, create a file called (yourname.docs) inside the docs folder, you will see how the rest of us did it. Then document your contribution process in Arabic. You can refer to the instructions in the repo to understand better. I'm using my phone to respond to you, that's why it's hard to reference the link in this comment. I hope I was able to help |
|
Thank you very much @Khadeeejah, |
|
Thank you @Khadeeejah for helping out and guiding the interns. Also, thank you all for your contributions so far. Don't worry if your PR isn't merged yet, still don't forget to add your contributions to Outreachy. In terms of the timeline, feel free to submit your your own timeline, this will not be taken into account during the selection process in OSCSA. Outside Outreachy, we are happy for your continued involvement in the Community and you are very welcome to continue to work on any of these issues after the contribution phase. All contributors will be acknowledged and added to the GitHub README and any talk presented by community members. OSCSA is alos happy to :

@all-contributors please add @Khadeeejah for Mentoring |
|
I've put up a pull request to add @Khadeeejah! 🎉 |
|
Hello ma @BatoolMM how are you doing, I didn't make it to the last stage of the internship and I'll appreciate it if you can let me keep contributing on this project as it doesn't have any outreachy interns selected for it. Thank you |
|
I wonder why they didn't choose any of us for this part of the project. |
https://www.outreachy.org/docs/applicant/#estimated-number-of-interns I guess they didn't have enough budget for both projects But we can still keep contributing and join the community because I feel we can achieve a lot on this project |
|
Hi @ThanaMeri, @Khadeeejah, @rnabage, @ruba 🌷 Our Community can't thank you enough for your wonderful contributions, unfortunately, we couldn’t choose an intern for both projects due to a limited budget - this was a tough decision that came after a long discussion with all co-mentors. However, all our projects are open source and have active contributions from outside Outreachy on a voluntary basis, and you are very welcome to join these meetings and develop your skills further, if this looks interesting to you. @Khadeeejah thank you for showing enthusiasm, I will follow up with an email and add you to the translation channel in Slack. |
Thank you ma❤️ I'll be expecting |

Summary
Open Science Community Saudi Arabia (OSCSA) aims to introduce open educational resources (OERs) for Open Science in Arabic to facilitate learning of Open science practices to novice learners. Therefore, we work with other Open Science communities such as the Turing Way and Open Life Science to localise their open educational resources (OER) using Crowdin, GitHub and Zenodo.
We use GitHub as a version control system for all the translations and to acknowledge all contributors. Crowdin is used as a translation management system (or TMS) to make contributions smooth. Any changes made to Crowdin will be reflected on GitHub using automation and continuous integration (CI). Crowdin provides Translation Memory (TM), Glossary, Machine Translation (MT) and QA checks.
Open Science Community Saudi Arabia (OSCSA) works with other international and local communities to reuse and curate their materials. We have so far worked with:
- Translation of The Turing Way
In Outreachy Winter 2022, we are accepting applicants to localise specific chapters of The Turing Way, audit the translation of specific videos of The open Life Science (OLS) and curate it with other materials from the Open Science Community Saudi Arabia to produce a short MOOCs that introduce Open Science for the novice learners.
Successful candidates will improve the streamlining of the localisation process by:
How to start?
Follow the contribution guidelines.
This way, it will open the crowdin editor where you will so all the translations! All the translation was done using crowdin machine translation (similar to google translation). None of it was done manually, so all the translation needs to be re-translated and then proofread (Approved). Chose only one single file and read it from the TW book before starting the translation - and start from the top of the file (title).
Using the Main menu in the top left corner, you can switch between files for translations, change translation language, contact manager, switch the view, get help or quit the editor. For more information, follow the docs here. If you have questions, please add them to this issue!
Glossary
The Glossary is supposed to contain terminology that has a purpose of explaining some specific terms or the ones often used in the project to be translated properly and consistently such as (e.g. open science, open access, open hardware, ...etc). It's not supposed to include names of people, books, ...etc.
You should add a specific term add to the glossary if:
1- It's commonly used in the project, but translators can translate it differently. For example, open access can be translated الوصول الحر أو الوصول المفتوح أو النفاذ الحر but we want to keep consistency throughout the project when it's translated by many contributors - so they can use the same translation, not multiple ones.
2- Some English terminology doesn't exist in Arabic. Once you translate them, you include them in Glossary (e.g. Git, GitHub, repository,..etc).
The Glossary should be consistent in style. The Arabic translation should contain the Arabic translation followed on the left the English terms between brackets with spaces between brackets. For example, the Arabic for Open access should be (Open Access) الوصول الحر with space between brackets and the Arabic word.
If you have questions about the glossary،, ask under this issue.
Submission
Once you finish a very small part of the translation, submit a PR for a markdown file called
NAME_docs.mdin/docsin this repo to include brief documentation in Arabic ( around 500 words or more using Markdown) about the translation process of the project in Crowdin. This should include (Getting started with Crowdin, tips, ..etc) using images and GIFs.If you have any questions throughout the process, add your question to this issue!
Tasks for Intern Selection:
Meetings
We will lead an online video call (on Zoom) to answer any questions you have. This will be on Tuesday, the 18th of October, at 12:10 pm UTC!
