FYI, less known is the fish (a command line shell) zh-CN translation fiasco. Last time I reviewed zh-CN translation for git there were a bunch of nonsense. And I'm pretty much given up the docs.python.org's zh-CN translation.

I don't really care how others do things, but I hope that I'm not the gatekeeper to review or be fed up with rubbish sentences.
