 As Matthew Miller pointed out in ambassadors list[1], it would be great to
 have a way to translate his posts into other languages. This would no
 require translators to have an WP account, since we could use our wiki to
 coordinate the l10n efforts.

 The goal is basically to have the possibility to store all languages
 alternatives for each post in the same post. After the l10n work is
 finished in the wiki, someone should post them in WP.

Comment:

 Why we should enable it? Each community (for example in Greece where I
 live) we have our community site http://el.fedoracommunity.org/ . If a
 local community would like to translate a post, they could add it to their
 community site. In my opinion it will be very complicated, because some
 posts will be translated, some others will not (and most probably will
 never be) and it will be a bit of a mess. Also, we have a static flow of
 posts in the magazine now, (and the number is getting bigger) so thinking
 that translating a posts will take a while, it will be old news ;)

 I would suggest that if a person would like to translate a post from the
 magazine, he/she should add it in their community site..

 What do you guys think?

Comment:

 This plugin has bad reviews and caused issues on the staging instance. We
 really could use a translation plugin but it has to pass performance and
 stability in the staging instance. I am closing this ticket out, if you
 would like to try a different one, we can put it in staging and go from
 there.
