Ok, thank you Joseph,
I began translating some entries from the list into Italian. There is a
problem with the 3rd one:
It says:
"We have only 150 staff but serve 450 million users, and have costs like
any other top site: servers, power, rent, programs, and staff."
It was translated as the 2nd entry, whereas a solution to this is:
"Abbiamo solo 150 dipendenti, ma siamo al servizio di 450 milioni di
utenti e abbiamo dei costi come qualsiasi altro sito importante: server,
energia elettrica, affitti, programmi e dipendenti."
But a writing appears: "Edit conflict detected", and I cannot save the
suggested translation.

Hey Gabriele,
Good to have you on board :)
Here is a quick run through on how to translate using the extension:
1)
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising_2012/Translation/Drop_down_banner
- This will take you to the source text which in this case is english.
2) You'll see "Translate this page" near the top, click that.
3) Select your language from the drop down menu and then click "fetch"
on the right hand side.
4) Double click on a text that is highlighted in green
5) Translate! :D
There are other ways of getting to this screen via a notification, or
via your languages semi-translated page but they will all take you to
this interface.
Hope that helps :)

Hi,
I am new to this, I subscribed to the list of translators, and I
would like to get started with it. I'm Italian, so I want to
translate texts from Russian and English into Italian.
What is the first step to begin?
Best regards,
Gabriele Cesarini (g.cesarini)

Hey guys,
So I wanted to do two things, firstly a brief keeping you guys in
the loop on the state of the international fundraiser and what to
expect over the coming months.
As many of you may know from the metric's meetings and emails to
the wikimedia-l list last november, the plan is to shift from the
big push annual fundraiser to a more subtle, lower impact year
round fundraiser. This is going to be happening over the coming
months and I am sure that more details about how exactly this
will happen will appear in time.
With regards to the international portion of the 12/13
fundraiser, we intend to restart testing in the top ten languages
in the coming weeks, with the remainder of languages following
later on. This means that you will start seeing translation
requests coming in somewhat regularly over the coming months.
Most of work that was done will still be used so nothing has gone
to waste but there is a greatly expanded thank you portion to the
fundraiser featuring numerous editors from all backgrounds that
will require alot of work.
We are going to aim to try and keep a torrent of notifications
from being sent out so some will be sent out in batches via a bot
as well as through this mailing list to at least reduce some of
the annoyance.
If you have any questions feel free to ask here or email me.
The final thing I wanted to ask is I could really do with some
*Italian *translations for this request:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&taction=translate&group=page-Fundraising+2012%2FTranslation%2FDrop+down+banner&language=it&limit=100&task=view
Italian is going to be the first of the big languages to undergo
a big testing phase.
Thank you :)
