With all respect for Doc-Team Members on Drupal.org
Note: This is a clone of the Issue I posted on Drupal.org.
Hi All,
With all respect and surely acknowledging all the native English Doc-Team Members, but I cannot accept that 1 or 2 or maybe some more Member of this Team want to represent the overall knowledge level of all the visitors on Drupal.org.
I really am frustrated that again I have to pledge for a more suitable attention for no native English on this Site.
It is a fact that really do show some kind of intolerance if it's explained that the page Common English expressions and acronyms it's not that much frequented for deleting some acronym that lead me to better identify posts and comments that really contains misspelling (Typos that everybody can happen on D.O.) and also because I'm sure that the page would get more visit if some of my request to improve announcement that such a page exist, would have been taken in consideration and supported.
I really take this as a personal offend also because I really though that here we do want to help no native English visitors of any kind and region to get access to Drupal and the Handbooks as to know and understand how to use this great CMS.
I ask your feedback in regard.
This is the primary goal of the page mentioned and linked above:
Common English expressions and acronyms used by members of Drupal.org in posts, issues and comments. This page gives basic help and reference to Drupal.org visitors, newbies, beginners and NNEs.
If You do not want this kind of contribution from me and for this Site. I do resign as a member and user on Drupal.org
Kind Regards
After reading the issue,
After reading the issue, this post, and the contribution you highlighted, I'm still not certain of what your concern is, so I hope you can explain.
Is it that you want non-English versions of the documentation? That's as simple as getting it translated. I understand that that's easier said than done, but nobody is preventing anyone from creating Drupal handbook pages in another language.
This might be one of those times when a site run by some third party might do a better job of proving that this is an important and feasible concept. They can be more flexible and make decisions more quickly than what might happen here.
Having said all that, I understand that this might be frustrating for you, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone who has threatened to leave the community get what they were looking for. It just doesn't work like that. All in all, I hope you stay and help with this, because you seem to have invested quite some time in it already.

Hi, @Trevortwining Thanks
Hi, @Trevortwining
Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry you did not get the point. Anyway I resigned from Doc-Team and as Site Maintainers on Drupal.org. today. Many will be happy about that, and I too am happy not to have anymore to explain. In this environment someone like me, no-native English have to much walls and close ears against. But that's Ok. It toke me too long to understand that only Drupal development is important here and the first priority on Drupal.org. That's OK too. It was my own mistake and misunderstanding that there is also place here for Humans. Apparently at the beginning you would left believe that it is so but the time come that you will see that if you have or not stand some particularity performance class as mostly Teams Members accomplish, "you"(me) are out.
That's It
A last addition. What the
A last addition. What the point is on Drupal.org as in our World is not that there is still war on this Planet, but that we still kill Ideas. Ideas come from any class, kind, education and social human being. We could leave all more peacefully and with less wars and hassles on our Planet if groups of people do not continue to behave like Gods and ban minority groups and believe that doing that they can change the natural development of the humans. We did prove that we where able to destroy the Nature balance?
I think day will come that the Nature will ban us from this Planet.
