Hello! 
I’m really interested in contributing to the latest version (3.14) of the Python Documentation. As you can see from this page, the Italian translation is practically non-existent.
I’d like to know if there’s already someone in charge of the Italian localization whom I can talk to, to understand how I can help, and also to avoid overlapping with work that may have already been started elsewhere.
I thank you in advance for your help 
Hi! The Italian translation already has a coordinator, he is listed in the devguide table.
There’s a Git repository in the GitHub Python organisation holding the translations. Next step for your project would be to create a 3.14 branch in the repository (and propagate the translations from 3.13 using pomerge or gettext’s msgmerge). Then either to translate using offline tools or add a translation platform integration.
Thank you so much for your help and for the useful links you’ve provided!
I’ve just emailed the coordinator for the Italian translation.
I hope to start collaborating as soon as possible 
Thanks again for your help 
I’m afraid looking at the coordinators activity it is unlikely he will return:
Maybe it is best to open a pr to add yourself as a coordinator like was done for the indonesian translation (see here) @nedbat @willingc ?
If you have any questions about translation I am happy to assist. The devguide is a bit of a WIP at the moment but once I’ve finished with the page for translators (Update `translation/translators.rst` by StanFromIreland · Pull Request #1576 · python/devguide · GitHub) I will be moving on to the coordination page.

Yes, I think you’re right, unfortunately 
I send him the email this early afternoon, but he didn’t answer back yet…

Oh, this is a great idea! I’d love to be involved in the project!
If you have any questions about translation I am happy to assist.
Yes, totally. 
When you have time, could you please share any useful information, instructions, or links to help me understand the workflow and start with the project as soon as possible? (I need to learn as much as I can 
)
Perhaps it would be helpful for me to have a chat with jwjacobson, the Indonesian coordinator you mentioned earlier?
I thank you a lot for your time and help
Hi Stan, Yes, that sounds like a good approach. Thanks!
That has been confirmed, so you can add yourself like to the devguide, like this pr.
When you have time, could you please share any useful information, instructions, or links to help me understand the workflow and start with the project as soon as possible?
The project is already set up with some workflow but is a version behind. IMO the easiest way to manage your translation would be with Transifex (Online translation platform, like Weblate, 8 translations, including mine, use it) and our sample workflows. Pretty much all you have to do is copy and paste and replace a few XXs, but it is all explained in detail in the docs I linked:-)
You should read through the devguide, it will largely be unnecessary since most of the steps have been completed for the Italian translation anyway, but it is good to be familiar with it. You can also see this preview where I have expanded the page for translators quite a bit, you may find it useful. (It also lists all up to date communication channels, where we will be happy to help.)
Thank you so much for all the instructions you gave me!
I will take a few days to delve into all the material, and then I’ll submit the PR you recommended. 
I’ll write here on the forum again in the coming days.
Hello🇮🇹
Just checking in, if you need any help, don’t hesitate to ask!
