+# Translating It's All Text!
+
+Hello and thanks for considering adding a translation to *It's All Text!*
+
+Below are several ways to go about updating or creating a new translation. Use the one you're the most comfortable with.
+
+You can view all of the available locales in [`src/chrome/locale`](https://github.com/docwhat/itsalltext/tree/master/src/chrome/locale).
+
+Because I am only fluent in English, the `en-US` is the "authorative" locale. I keep it up-to-date with the code.
+
+## Updating a translation
+
+If a locale has English in it still, then you can contribute to *It's All Text!* by forking and submitting pull requests.
+
+Github has excellent instructions for this:
+
+* [Forking a repository](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo)
+* [Submitting a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests)
+
+### Github's editor
+
+Once you've forked `itsalltext` then you can go in the `src/chrome/locale` directory. Find the directory matching the language
+you're willing to update. Once there, you can edit files by clicking on them and then clicking "Edit".
+
+Github has some help for this:
+
+* [Creating and editing files in your repository](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-and-editing-files-in-your-repository)
+
+Once you're done, submit a Pull Request. I'll double check everything and then the next version of *It's All Text!* will your
+translations!
+
+### Git
+
+If you're comfortable with `git`, then you should know how this goes. If you're new to `git` but still want to use it, then I suggest reading
+github's guides at [help.github.com](https://help.github.com/).
+
+## A Completely new translation
+
+If you're a `git` user, just copy the `en-US` locale and use it for your starting point. Remind me it is a new locale so I remember to add
+it to the `install.rdf` (or you can add it yourself and save me from making a mistake).
+
+If you aren't comfortable with `git` then I can mail you a copy of the `en-US` locale and you can email me the resulting translation!
+
+To contact me, just use [my mail form](https://docwhat.org/email/).
+
+## Additional Notes
+
+Don't worry about the GPL license. For legal reasons it cannot be translated. See [GNU's page on translations](http://www.gnu.org/licenses/translations.html).
