Hi,
I would like to know what happens when you have more than 30,000 recognition points?
Is there any other program?
Thank you
Hey @jllopismoran Considering the recognition is a relatively new program, we are still focusing on up to 30,000 recognition points for now. Maybe @ambra can advice further?

Hello, I have sent the request for 5.000 words milestone certificate through the email, but I havent heard since two days ago. How can I follow up this? I need the certificate and letter of reference for my post graduate application. Thank you in advance!
Hi Dewi, we apologize for not responding earlier, we are receiving a high number of requests and we therefore might take time to respond, you will surely receive a reply to your email today or tomorrow. Thanks for your understanding 
Hello, I have been requesting a reward for my recent contributions to the translation without borders. Since I exceeded 50,000 points in strategic languages, I would like to ask for a monetary reward. I have asked before when I pass 25,000 points but still I didn’t get the reward so I would like to ask the reward for 25000 and 50000 points reward. Thank you
Hi Yared, thank you for your message, I see that we received an email from you regarding your request, we will check it and get back to you shortly. Only it’s taking us some time until we follow up with the high number of request we are receiving. Thank you for your patience and understanding

Hi! I don’t know if this the right place to ask, but I know that when you reach the 20,000 words, you may ask for a certificate. May I claim one? Thank you in advance

Hey Miriam,
If you go on your Profile tab and scroll down you’ll see a heading called Community Recognition Program, where you’ll find all the information you need.
Contributions are point-based, not word-based, and the points are calculated according to this table:
| Type of task | Unit | Points accrued per unit |
|---|---|---|
| Translation | 1 word | 1 |
| Revision | 1 word | 0.5 |
| Transcription | 1 word | 0.5 |
| Voice recording | 1 word | 1 |
| Translation of subtitles | 1 word | 1 |
| Revision of subtitles | 1 word | 0.5 |
| Terminology | 1 term | 10 |
| You can request rewards when you reach 5,000 points (Certification of volunteer activity), 15,000 points (Reference letter) and 30,000 points (Recommendation on professional platforms). |
You can request rewards at recognition@translatorswithoutborders.org and the TWB staff will process your request within 2 business days.
Happy translating!

How is the terminology task working?

Hey @Ha3ibullah!
In my case, I was contacted by TWB to help put together a glossary of terms. A humanitarian company they were collaborating with noticed some terms relating to the field had various translations in my language, so they requested TWB to create a glossary of terms to be used by translators in order to have consistency.

Thank you, I appreciate it.
Good day,
The email recognition@translatorswithoutborders.org didn’t respond more regarding the recognition program monetary reward, and I wrote them 3-4 times in a period of a month. Is it possible that this program is no more valid? Thank you

Good day @Muhammad2, Please accept our apologies for not responding sooner; we received your email but the high volume of requests that we are receiving daily has affected our processing speed. With that said, you will be hearing from us in the next few days. Thank you again for your patience Muhammad.

The staff is not cooperative regarding the recognition program, which keeps you waiting months for an update. The automated generated email for the program recognition reply clearly says that the staff will contact us within 10 to 20 days, but it is not true. Thank you
I reached 334260 points (words translated), of which 238630 are strategic Pashto points (words translated), but no rewards were received.
Hi @Muhammad2, Thank you again for your patience but I believe a colleague has now contacted you via email with the next steps. We really appreciate the amazing work that you are doing in supporting us, thank you again Muhammad!

Hi @Aya.Alrifai,
Hope you are doing well!
I need a reference letter and I have sent an email but it says that I have to wait from 10-20 days. I need it currently if possible! It will not be important for me after 10 days! So, is it possible to receive it earlier?
Thank you so much in advance!
