Weekly Overview of Translation Category - Week 28, 2019

in #iamutopian • 5 years ago

As a Community Manager for @Utopian-io and @Davinci.witness, I will continue to write these weekly reports for the translation category. The report will include:

  1. Translators' Activities
  2. Moderators' Activities

In this report, I will follow the format of the other Utopian categories to provide the following information:

  • Graphs of the translators' contributions
  • Graphs of language teams contributions
  • Charts of comparisons of the different weeks
  • Graphs of moderators' scoring
  • Average score of the category & comparisons
  • Showcase the staff pick of the week if there is one
  • Update the Translators Members List
  • Upcoming Events

Summary Overview for Week 28: June 4 - July 11, 2019

A. Contributions Summary

1. Translators' Contributions for This Week

This week, we have 26 Contributions

In the translation category, it is important that we monitor the contributions submitted by the different language teams as translators work together in teams.

Therefore, the statistics and graphs will not show the contributions of the individual translators but will display the 19 language teams instead.

The following chart shows the distribution of contributions of the 19 different language teams.

Analysis:

From the graph, we can see different amounts of contributions from different language teams. We want to aim for each team to contribute 4 to 5 translations. In this way, all language teams have an equal chance of getting rewarded for their translations.

  • Spanish team leads with 6 contributions.
  • Followed by Turkish team with 4 contributions.
  • Then Italian and Yoruba teams with 3 contribution each.
  • There are no contributions from Greek, Dutch, Polish, French, Arabic, Slovenian, Hebrew and Korean teams.

Please Note:

  • These graphs are created so that we can see the activity of each language team. On Feb 10th, @Davinci.witness Management team set up a new rule with a cap of 5 contributions from each language team. The reason behind this rule is to give all language teams equal chances to contribute to the translation category.

  • Therefore, it is important to note that the teams are not competing with each other to produce the greatest number of contributions.

  • Our aim is to have all language teams producing an equal amount of 5 translations consistently.

This week, the Spanish team has 6 contributions. They are within the 5 contributions cap when we count the contributions of Davinci Sunday to Sunday.

Contributions from each team are on the low side. This is probably due to the summer holidays.

2. Total Contributions of 4 Weeks

We will compare the total contributions in the translation category for 4 weeks time period.

Week 25: 25 contributions
Week 26: 43 contributions
Week 27: 25 contributions
Week 28: 26 contributions

Analysis:

  • There is an increase of 1 contribution this week. - The total contribution still seems to be on a low point. It could be due to the fact that summer is here and people are having their holidays.
  • The most ideal situation is to have all the color of the language teams with an equal amount of 5 contributions.
  • Right now, the color is still not very even.
  • The teams that have a good amount of block of contributions: Serbian, Turkish, Yoruba, Portuguese and Spanish Teams
  • Some teams have a little color of blocks. We need to encourage these language teams to be more active in their contributions.


3. Four Weeks Comparisons for Each Language Team

The following table shows the number of contributions in the different language teams for 4 weeks.

Analysis:

There are 4 color bars for each language teams with each bar representing the 4 different weeks. In this way, we can get a clearer indication of which teams are getting more engaged and which teams are getting less engaged.

  • The following teams show signs of good engagement: Spanish, Yoruba, Serbian, Portuguese, and Turkish teams.
  • The following teams show signs of getting more engaged: Vietnamese, Italian and Filipino teams.
  • The following team shows signs of getting less engaged: Chinese, Arabic, German and Russian teams.
  • The following teams show no signs of engagement: Greek, Dutch, Polish, Slovenian and Korean teams.

4. Overall Growth of Each Language Team for 4 weeks

It is important that we measure the language team activities not just by one week but to see their monthly overall performance.

The following graph shows the total number of contributions of the 20 language teams in the past 4 weeks

Analysis

From the chart, we are able to see the situation of each language team in the spread of 4 weeks.

You can see the consistencies by looking at the colors of the 4 different weeks of contribution!

  • Spanish, Yoruba, Serbian, Portuguese and Turkish teams are active in their contributions in a consistent manner of about 4 to 5 contributions each week.
    • Filipino and Vietnamese team are becoming more active in their contributions.
  • There is little growth with the Chinese, Italian, French, Vietnamese, German, Hebrew and Russian teams.
  • There is no growth in Greek, Dutch, Polish, Slovenian and Korean teams.

B. Language Moderators' Scoring - Week 28, 2019

For the scoring distribution, we have 30 moderators, so I need to group the scoring into language teams so that you can see the analysis clearer in the distribution of scoring.

1. Statistics Showing Scores Given by our 30 Moderators in the Language Teams

For this week's report, I will continue to show also the following statistics requested by different people.

There are 3 columns:

  • A - the moderator
  • B - the language team
  • C - the scores given by the moderator

From this table, you will be able to see who the moderators are giving the scores for the language teams.

The following chart shows the distribution of scores of all the teams.

2. Chart showing the distribution of scores

The X-axis is not able to list out all the languages for each score and only able to list out the language for every other 2 scores shown.

3. Analysis

  • The highest score this week is 92 given by the Serbian moderator.
  • The lowest score this week is 62 given by the Spanish moderator.
  • About 25% of the contributions received scores between 80 to 100
  • About 40% of the contributions received scores between 70 to 80
  • About 35% of the contributions received scores below 70.

This week's scoring shows that the translators are doing good work: 25% scores higher than 80.

About 35% of the contribution scores below 70. This percentage is a bit high. For translators scoring below 70 consistently, they need to be paused to get remedial training.

Ideally, we want every translator to score above 70 so that we have a high-quality translation in all the translation contributions.

4. The average score of the Contributions is 75.

Last week, the average score was 74. The translation teams are still able to maintain the minimum requirement expected of them.

D. Events

The Davinci-Utopian front-end is currently down. All translators and LM need to use Steempeak to set the beneficiaries (@utopian.pay 5% and @davinci.pay 10%). Please use the tags #utopian-io and #translations in your post.

E. Tip of the Week

In the past week, I have a few inquirires and DM about how people can apply to be translators for their native language.

The Davinci.witness team accepts applications from anyone who is interested in doing translating work for FOSS projects.

Please submit a post on Steem with your qualifications plus a voice over using your native language and English. Once you have posted your application on Steemit, please go to the Davinci Discord channel and submit your application post in the #job-application room.

The Davinci team will come in and review your application. They will directly contact you when your application is approved. If you wish to inquire more regarding your application, you can join the "welcome" room in the Davinci discord channel to ask questions. A Davinci staff member will reply your inquiries.

That's it for this week,
Rosa

    Hello, @rosatravels. Thank you for sharing the weekly update. From this update, it seems we got much lesser contributions compared to the previous weeks. That is a little bit worrying. I hope to see things go back to the normal shape.

    Yes, the translation category needs coordination between the translators and the language moderator to proof read. So if one is busy and the other cannot go ahead. So with summer holidays, people are not so conscientious in doing translations. Davinci will be doing some works to get more people engaged soon. Hopefully this can help.
