Thanks Asaf! I was just curious, but now I have a duty to translate it!

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 https://studio.learn.wiki/meta_translations/discover_courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2024_eu"]a clone of the OpenRefine for Commons course to be translated into Basque. Enjoy!
A.

This is great, thank you! I have tried to understand how to translate it, but I can only get the links for existing translations, not new ones. Is it possible to translate it for other languages? Or we need some kind of permission?
Thanks!
Galder

Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Launch of the course "OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics" Hello!
We are happy to announce that there is now a free and publicly accessible course on the learning platform, WikiLearn, on how to upload and edit files on Wikimedia Commons using OpenRefine: https://learn.wiki/courses/course-v1:Wikimedia-Foundation+WMF_GLAM001+2023/about"]OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/OpenRefine"]OpenRefine is a free data-wrangling tool that can be used to process, manipulate, and clean tabular (spreadsheet) data and connect it with knowledge bases, including Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons.

This online course is available at any time, for free. Anyone with a Wikimedia account can enroll with the click of a button. It can be followed at your own pace, with computer-graded exercises. A certificate is awarded at the end to those who complete the course.

The training is suitable for Wikimedians, Wikimedia affiliate staff, and partners (e.g. GLAM staff and Wikimedians in Residence). Accomplishing the course should take an average of 6 to 8 hours.

This course was developed as part of the Wikimedia Foundation's https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:OpenRefine/Training_2023-24"]training and sustainability grant to OpenRefine. It is currently available in English and can be easily translated into other languages (more about the translation process https://studio.learn.wiki/meta_translations/discover_courses/"]here and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Tutorial_on_how_to_translate_course_content_in_WikiLearn.webm"]here). Translations for this course in French, Spanish, and Portuguese are being worked on and will be available very soon.
Please, feel free to share this course with people you think might be interested in learning more about OpenRefine or Wikimedia Commons, who are part of your network, in groups, social media, or any other places.
Thank you!
Best, Giovanna & Sandra
