Regarding the Arabic Fedoraproject.org web page

[Ahmed Alfasatwi]

Dear Websites Fedora Team,

My name is Ahmed, and I am new to the fedora community.

I am a web developer with a good experience in web design and 
programming (php).

I have noticed that the Arabic web site of the Fedoraproject.org is not 
translated yet, and since my Arabic language is excellent, I wish to 
contribute by helping in the translation of those pages.

Warmest Regards,

Ahmed Alfasatwi,

Ahmed,

Thank you for your interest. We truly want folks to translate our website.
Translating the website is done through Transifex [1]. Go ahead and create
an account and then click on Arabic. There you should see some options to
get the strings necessary to translate. We also have other websites [2]
that should be translated too.

You don't need to be 100% for translated text to show up. We pull these
translations hourly, so anything done during that period will be displayed
on the website.

Thank you again for translating!

Sijis

Dear Sijis,

Thank you for your reply, I have registered an account in Transifex and 
requested to join the Arabic translation team since it was required, but 
from what I have seen, the last five activities happened in the Arabic 
translation team were requests from 5 users that haven't been yet 
approved, and some of the requests have been alive for more than 4 months.

https://fedora.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora/team/ar/

So is it possible that no one is taking care of that team?, and if so, 
how is it possible for anyone to answer my request.

Thank you again for the reply,

Warmest Regards,

Ahmed Alfasatwi,

Ahmed,

Sorry but i wasn't aware that you needed to be in the Arabic group in order
to submit a translation.

> From what i see, you should contact the Arabic Translation list at
trans-ar(a)lists.fedoraproject.org. If you get no response there, i would try
the general Translations list (trans(a)lists.fedoraproject.org).
