Inspired by another non-Scrum guide website that has the highest quality translations, to the extent that the translations are trusted, the authors of the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack created a Translation Code of Conduct for the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack(SGEP). The authors of the SGEP were caught a little off guard by the number of translation requests and the level of enthusiasm in a short period. Translators of the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack and its associated materials do our community an invaluable service and are greatly appreciated. The Code of Conduct for Scrum Guide Expansion Pack Translations outlines expectations and standards to ensure that translation work is of the highest quality and serves the best interests of the communities served by the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack. Translators must agree to the Translation Code of Conduct before translating, re-translating, or continuing to translate any written materials associated with the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack. All translators in any translation must comply with the Translation Code of Conduct for the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack. Suggestions to improve the Translation Code of Conduct can be submitted using discussions. Translation refers to any translated document from the official website(s) publishing the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack, currently the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack website. A translator is a person who facilitates, creates, amends, or reviews the translation(s) of documents on the official website(s) for accessing the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack. If any translator is uncomfortable with the Translation Code of Conduct, they must stop their involvement in SGEP translation work and allow other translators to proceed without them. Any perceived breaches of the Translation Code of Conduct may be reported to me privately via email to [email protected], and I will arrange calls to discuss, review the evidence shared with me, and review all sides of such reports. There is no appeals process. |

We're excited to open up community-driven translation for the Scrum Guide Expansion Pack — and we now have a complete Translation Guide to support contributors around the world.
View the full guide: Translation Guide
Whether you’re an experienced GitHub contributor or new to technical collaboration, there’s a workflow that fits your comfort level:
Two Ways to Contribute
1. GitHub Workflow (for technical contributors)
If you're familiar with Git, GitHub, and Markdown, you can fork the repo, generate translation templates with our automated PowerShell script, and submit a Pull Request for community review. The script sets up all the files, configuration, and structure you need in under two minutes.
2. Manual Submission (for non-technical contributors)
If you’re not familiar with GitHub, no problem. You can download the translation templates, work locally or collaboratively (e.g., Google Docs), and then upload the translated files through a GitHub issue. We’ll take care of the rest, including the Pull Request and technical setup.
What Needs Translating?
To add a new language, we ask for:
index.{LANG}.md
{LANG}.yaml
We provide templates and examples (like the Klingon
tlh
translation) to help you get started.Why This Matters
Scrum is used by teams all over the world, and the Expansion Pack exists to help practitioners navigate modern challenges without bloating the core of Scrum. Making this guidance available in more languages means more people can use it effectively, especially in regions where English isn’t the working language.
All contributors will be:
