Babel / Language champions
Babel language champions are persons who are proficient in both English and another language and have a few minutes to spare each week. Being a language champion is a low-effort task for providing insight to the Babel team, and community, on the current state of the quality of the language.

How can I be a language champion?
- Casually monitor the Recent Translations for your language, and report the following:
- Vandalism: report vandalism to the Babel Developers mailing list, so it can be removed by the Babel team
- Errors: report, and discuss translation errors on the Babel Translators mailing list.
- Install and test a language pack every few weeks
- Help translators with ambiguous translations on the Translators list
