Hello !
I have a question, I have been registered here for almost a week now and Iâm not getting any tasks on the main page, did I do anything wrong? or do I have to meet a certain requirement?
I see some of the comments mentioning a test but I am a little confused, would anyone answer my questions please?
Thank you for your help.
Hi @Nour98, and welcome to the TWB community!
If you didnât find any tasks on your homepage, it simply means that there are no available tasks in your language pairs.
And If youâd like, you can sign up to receive daily task stream emails. You will receive an email when tasks are available in your language pairs.
As far as I know the test to become a verified translator is no longer required and your verification will depend on several good reviews and feedback.
You can find out more on this thread
Have a great day!
Best regards. Lilav.
Hello I just joined the team! My language combinations are English-arabic. However I canât find any tasks on the home page despite the popularity of such language combination. Is that normal or there is a problem with my profile?
Welcome to the TWB community, @Nour98!

Hello @Maryam.elshazly, firstly, welcome to the TWB community!
Thanks for reaching out here I had a look at your profile and it looks all good!
When you cannot see any tasks in the homepage, it means that at the moment you are looking there are no available tasks, but no worries - we post new tasks all the time, so keep an eye out
I also see you set up your task email notifications settings to receive daily updates, so when new tasks become available for you, youâll be notified
If you havenât yet, please take a look at our Translatorâs Toolkit, where youâll find plenty of useful resources, or take our Introduction to Humanitarian Translation for the TWB Community - itâs a great way to get started with TWB
Hello to everyone here
Hope your doing well.
Recently I claim a task and in few minutes I receive a notification saying that @your task has been revoked
Can you know what is reason
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Hello,
Hope you all doing well.
I rarely find a task to work on. And I really want to work on more projects since all I did is just one task.
Hello @alhajri.rms
Thanks for your interest in working on tasks with TWB, that means a lot to us!
Weâre sorry you havenât had access to tasks recently. The homepage only shows tasks available at the time you are looking. If you cannot see any tasks in your language pairs, donât worry. We post new tasks all the time, so keep an eye out!
I see you are signed up to receive task stream emails. You will receive an email when tasks are available in your language pairs
Let us know if you have any questions
Hi @musevenifreddy001, thanks for your message
Apologies for this inconvenience - sometimes this might happen when the PMs need to implement changes to the project and need to revoke it.
I see you have already claimed many tasks to work on, so I am sure you can support us with these other tasks Thank you!!
Hey@Silvia
Thank you for the message .
Thanks for your support
Hello! I just claim a task and I wasnât redirected to the page on which I am supposed to click on the button âYes, I promise I will translate this fileâ.
Is it because I need to be approved by the project manager first? or how can I access that page so that I am sure I am in charge of translating that task? Thanks!
hi
you donât need to be approved for your translation
it must be a technical glitch
iâm sure the kind TWB staff will respond asap
Hello @OrielaB and welcome to TWB!
As @soke35 kindly mentioned, you donât need to be approved to do a translation work. I believe that by the time you wanted to claim the task, another volunteer had already claimed it. Another possible reason is that the task you wanted to claim is only available for verified translators.
There are always several choices of tasks to claim for sure! If youâd like to learn more about how to claim a task, take a look at this tutorial.
Also, you may find it useful to take a look at the translatorâs toolkit that includes information and instructions on how to use the TWB Platform.
Please let us know if you have any questions
Hello Everyone!
So I claimed my first task here, but I canât find it anywhere. There is no (claimed task) option on the bar (between home and profile). I would appreciate your help! I closed the browser before I clicked on (Translate using Memsource), so how can I find the task I claimed and start translating it with the TWB Memsource account? Because I have to use the Memsource TB for this task
Thank you!

Hi @Areej91 !
When you claim a task, they send you an email with the URL of the project. Check if you received it.
I hope it helps
Have a good day!
Good morning Alessandra, Iâm new to TWB! This information is very useful. Iâm trying to search for available tasks but I cannot see any (with or without language filter), do I need to do something in order to start working on projects?
Thank you!
