mastodon 4.6.9A community of interest that fosters relationships between folks who see the value in increasing translations of scientific articles/reports/books, abstracts, titles and terms in order to expand participation in our global knowledge systems.
In our Wiki you can find background information (on finding and making translations). On our blog we make our case and start discussions.

Greetings, Translate Science community!
Translate Science is getting ready to launch our PREreview Club https://prereview.org/clubs/translate-science in May. The Club will be writing and publishing constructive open peer reviews of preprints related to multilingual open science on an occasional basis. We invite you to help us select the first preprint for the Club to review.
Please complete this poll https://nextcloud.translatescience.org/apps/forms/s/SPJYEjq5EcaFeHYRf3jtrW7f to share your thoughts on which of these five preprints you would recommend that we review. Even if you don't plan to participate actively in the Club, we'd love to hear from you to understand more about our community's interests. We hope our Translate Science community will enjoy these occasional polls as a quick way to share your thoughts and learn about research being done on multilingual open science. We'll close the poll on April 26th and make a decision based on the results at our Core Contributors meeting April 27th.
