> Without knowing a word English,
I would argue that most of those still require a level of English
comprehension at present.
All of the WordPress documentation is in english, and although some teams
have translated some, it's not exactly ideal to rely upon possibly
outdated documentation or machine translated documents.
Those organising events under the WordPress umbrella (which is what we
primarily focus on) do need to be able to communicate with the team reps,
understand the [https://make.wordpress.org/community/handbook/wordcamp-
organizer/planning-details/code-of-conduct/ (AFAIK english-only) CoC],
etc.
The one I will give you, is contributing to localised forums, although
they still need to be able to understand the above CoC and other .org
policies.
I'm not denying that there's not space within the WordPress contribution
landscape for those who do not read/speak a word of English, mostly that
right now it's definitely not ideal and shouldn't be a blocker/high-
priority task for an MVP - although we're an inclusive community, we're
limited by our lack of translated policies and documentation.
