How to work with us

Share your experience

Please post on the team’s talk page or the talk pages for our projects!  We want to hear about what is working and what is not working for new contributors in your wikis. We also want to hear any reactions, questions, or opinions on our work.

Be a volunteer translator

Translate Growth experiments on Translatewiki.net (it requires a different account than your Wikimedia one).

Translate the interface

The Growth features are intended to encourage everyone to participate and edit. As a result, we ask translators to write translations that are inclusive and use gender-neutral language whenever possible.
