Hi, Galder.
The platform still requires some manual configuration for creating a
translated version of a course, so for now there is the slight
inconvenience of having to explicitly express interest in translating a
particular course into a particular language, and the Community Development
team can easily create it.
I have now gone ahead and created a clone of the OpenRefine for Commons
course to be translated into Basque
<https://studio.learn.wiki/meta_translations/discover_courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_eu>.
Enjoy!
