Hi all,
as many of you are already aware, the Wikimedia Funds Dissemination
Committee (FDC) is currently seeking input from the community to help
evaluate financial requests from eleven Wikimedia organization - ten
chapters and Amical Wikimedia -, totaling about $5.85 million:

(closing October 31)
To bring this invitation to the attention of editors - whose volunteer
work much of the requested money is planned to support - we are
currently running CentralNotice banners for logged-in editors on all
projects. The first banner reuses bot-updated translations from the
last FDC round, but translation help is still needed for the following
banners:

(this is an alternative banner to the one reused from the last round,
testing some wording changes - e.g. it clarifies that comments in
another language than English are fine, even though the proposals
themselves are all in English)
Also, there are country-specific banners inviting editors to comment
specifically on the funding request from an organization in that
country. They should be translated into the local languages:
* German for:

- no priority translations here though, as most residents of the UK
speak English ;)
