Ask the discourse team to enter the group of indonesian translators on Transifex.  
You begin to translate on Transifex and keep an eye on the _history_ and _suggestions_ (on the bottom right) to make it linear with the rest of the translation.

The translations will be integrated once a week on Discourse.

After that, if you need, you can customize any text in `/admin/customize/site_texts` to adapt it to your personal case.

You can mention someone when you need to communicate with a particular person. He will receive a notification (in this case I mention @zogstrip so he can add you as a translator on Transifex)

No. The translations will update (from transifex to discourse) once a week.

You should have received an email to become reviewer for the Indonesian locale. Thanks for your contributions!
