On June 6, 2025, during our weekly Training Team meeting, I was awarded the Training Contributor badge in recognition of my contributions to Learn.WordPress.org. This badge honors members who help create, review, or translate lessons, and I’m proud to be among the recipients.
Highlights from the 3rd June 2025 Meeting
In the meeting recap on Make WordPress Training, we covered:
- Reviewing Q2 goals: we gathered feedback on our 2025 milestones as we wrapped up the second quarter.
- Volunteer opportunities: we invited contributors to host online workshops, coffee hours, study jams, or lesson walkthroughs.
- Triage squad updates: we prepared for upcoming biweekly issue triage sessions.
- Contributor Day planning: we coordinated an online Training Team Contributor Day alongside WordCamp Europe 2025 Contributor Day.
Amid all these items, I was honored when my badge was announced.
My Translation Contributions
Localization makes WordPress accessible worldwide. Over the past months, I’ve reviewed and pushed forward key Tagalog translations for lessons and documentation, including:
- Issue #3183 – translating new lesson content into Tagalog
- Issue #3144 – updating terminology for consistency
- Issue #3143 – refining translation style guidelines
- Issue #3139 – reviewing community-submitted translations
- Issue #3138 – testing translated pages for accuracy
My attention to detail and clear feedback have helped the Training Team deliver high-quality, localized learning materials for Tagalog speakers.
Feedback Validation Efforts
Beyond translations, I’ve validated and acted on learner feedback to keep our lessons relevant and error-free. Recent issues I tackled include:
- Issue #3137 – consolidating user feedback on workshop formatting
- Issue #3159 – verifying reported typos and code snippet errors
- Issue #3181 – confirming accessibility improvements across lesson pages
By stepping in to validate and apply this feedback, I help keep our content polished and learner-focused.
How You Can Get Involved
If you’re inspired by my work, here are a few ways to jump in:
- Join a Meeting: we meet every Tuesday at 07:00 UTC in #training on Slack. Peek at the agenda before you hop on.
- Help with Translations: pick an open issue from the “Content ready for review” board and lend your language skills.
- Validate Feedback: spot a typo or bug? Check out “Feedback awaiting validation”, confirm it, then help fix it.
- Host a Workshop: run a coffee hour or study session using lessons on Learn.WordPress.org, teaching is a great way to learn!
About the WordPress Training Team
We’re a global bunch of volunteers who love teaching and learning all things WordPress. Our playground is Learn.WordPress.org, where we create, polish, and translate bite-sized lessons on using, extending, and contributing to WordPress.
What we’re aiming for in 2025:
- Reach more folks by spreading the word about our free lessons
- Make every lesson as clear and accessible as possible (think captions, screen-reader friendliness, simple language)
- Grow our community so everyone, from total newbies to seasoned devs, can share knowledge and skills
How we keep it rolling: weekly Zoom hangouts, biweekly GitHub triage sessions, tons of hands-on workshops, and a friendly Slack channel where no question is too small. Whether you write a line of lesson content, review a translation, or flag a typo, every bit of help counts.
