You can help by UPLOADING, TRANSLATING or REVIEWING TRANSLATIONS. Here’s how:
Upload
You can find videos about almost anything on YouTube. When you find one you like, just copy the URL from the top of your browser. It should look something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbCdEfGhIj. Then go to the "Upload" tab and paste the URL into the text box. Hit "Request" and we'll start processing that video .
Translate
Go to the translate tab to find videos that are awaiting Spanish subtitles. Click on a video from the list; the video with English subtitles will appear in a new tab. Each subtitle box can be edited by clicking the “edit button”. Translate as many subtitles as you can. When every subtitle is translated, the work complete button (in the upper right of the tab) will activate. Click it and the video will move to the Approve Translation tab. .
Review Translation
We want to make sure the translations on each and every video are of the highest quality before we publish the video to the entire yappr community, so we are asking 3 yapprs to confirm the translations first. Click on the review translation tab and then click on a video. (The right column will show you how many votes a video already has.) Review all the translations. If you can improve any of the translations, go ahead and edit the subtitles. When you are done reviewing, if all the translations are accurate, hit the confirm button in the upper right corner of the tab.
It will take 3 votes to confirm a video for publication. However, if you make lots of edits to a video that already has some confirmations, we will ask for 3 more approvals.
By the way, once you review a video, you can’t review it again. Also, if you were the original translator, you won’t be able to review it either.
