    Yeah I just wanted to point to the same page and yet again I remembered that I have the "How to translate a kata?" tutorial in my backlog for waaaaay to long :(

    You can refer to the official documentation, but I think it's quite incomplete about this topic: https://docs.codewars.com/authoring/guidelines/translation

    Once you solved (or forfeited) a kata, you should see new tabs appear at the top page, below the title and the statistics: Solutions - forks - ... - Translations .

    If you click on Translations, you get to a new page, where you can see, at the top, the translations awaiting approvals, and below all the approved translations. Between them, you have a box Translate. If you click it, you get to the translation editor page. You can select any languages the kata has not been translated into (for example PHP for this kata), and then you can edit the translation, reference solution, sample tests, attempt tests, and solution set up. Once you have your translation published and think it's ok, you can post a suggestion on the Discourse page, so that other users can review it and approve it, fix it or give advices about it.

    If you have concrete questions and have the opportunity, maybe it's handier to ask them on the #help-translate channel of CodeWars' Discords server (link is in the left panel).

    One could say the same for other 51 languages, or thousands of other katas... suggestions are expected to be concrete ideas of improvements of a katas, not plea for new languages. There will be a translation in PHP when someome works on it and gets it approved.
