MetaBrainz:MetaBrainz.org Website/Internationalization
This page is intended for translators of MetaBrainz Foundation website, and for people interested in the state of its internationalization.
Getting started
For a general introduction about translation platform, projects, and languages, please refer to the more general page about translation.
If you want to help translate, go to the Transifex page (to be soon replaced with Weblate) and create an account. If there is already a team for your language, you can join it, if not, you can ask for the creation of a new team.

Viewing the translations
Translations are NOT currently available at https://metabrainz.org/.
More coding work is required to make it happen; See jira:MEB-65 for follow-up.

A POT file is provided with all the strings used in the server. They are in English.
