# Localización de Django

Diversas partes de Django, tales como el sitio administrativo y los mensajes de error de validación, están internacionalizadas. Esto significa que se muestran de forma diferente dependiendo del idioma o el país de cada usuario. Por esta razón, Django utiliza la misma infraestructura de internacionalización y localización disponible para las aplicaciones Django descritas en la [documentación de i18n](/es/5.1/topics/i18n/).

## Traducciones

Los usuarios de Django a nivel mundial aportan las traducciones. El trabajo de traducción se coordina en Transifex.

If you find an incorrect translation or want to discuss specific translations,
go to the [Django project page](https://app.transifex.com/django/django/). If you would like to help out with
translating or adding a language that isn’t yet translated, here’s what to do:

- Introduce yourself on the [Django internationalization forum](https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/i18n/14).
- Asegúrese de leer las notas sobre: ​​ref: Especialidades i18n en django.
- Regístrese en Transifex y visite la página del proyecto Django.
- En la página del proyecto Django, escoja un idioma al que quiera traducir, **o**, en caso de que no exista todavía el mismo, solicitelo haciendo clic en el enlace  “Solicitar idioma” y seleccionando el idioma correspondiente.
- Then, click the «Join this Team» button to become a member of this team.
  Every team has at least one coordinator who is responsible to review
  your membership request. You can also contact the team coordinator to clarify
  procedural problems and handle the actual translation process.
- Once you are a member of a team choose the translation resource you
  want to update on the team page. For example, the «core» resource refers
  to the translation catalog that contains all non-contrib translations.
  Each of the contrib apps also has a resource (prefixed with «contrib»).

Translations from Transifex are only integrated into the Django repository at
the time of a new [feature release](/es/5.1/internals/release-process/#term-Feature-release). We try to update
them a second time during one of the following [patch release](/es/5.1/internals/release-process/#term-Patch-release)s, but that depends on the translation manager’s availability.
So don’t miss the string freeze period (between the release candidate and the
feature release) to take the opportunity to complete and fix the translations
for your language!

## Formatos

También puede revisar `conf/locale/<locale>/ formats.py`. Este archivo describe la fecha, hora y las particularidades del formato de números de su configuración regional. Consulte :doc: /topics/i18n/formatting para más información.

The format files aren’t managed by the use of Transifex. To change them, you
must:

- [Create a pull request](/es/5.1/internals/contributing/writing-code/submitting-patches/) against the
  Django Git `main` branch, as for any code change.
- Open a ticket in Django’s ticket system, set its `Component` field to
  `Translations`, set the «has patch» flag, and include the link to the pull
  request.

## Documentación

There is also an opportunity to translate the documentation, though this is a
huge undertaking to complete entirely (you have been warned!). We use the same
[Transifex tool](https://app.transifex.com/django/django-docs/). The
translations will appear at `https://docs.djangoproject.com/<language_code>/`
when at least the `docs/intro/*` files are fully translated in your language.

Once translations are published, updated versions from Transifex will be
irregularly ported to the [django/django-docs-translations](https://github.com/django/django-docs-translations) repository and to the
documentation website. Only translations for the latest stable Django release
are updated.
