I found the [article on the meaning of captive/ cultivated](https://help.inaturalist.org/en/support/solutions/articles/151000169932-what-does-captive-cultivated-mean-) very enlightening, but it’s not available in German. I have translated it so it’s accessible to the people who don’t understand English.

How can I contribute? I have a Crowdin account - how do I add a new article?

Here’s an existing CrownIn tutorial on the forum:

I understand how to translate existing text on Crowdin, I was wondering how to translate and add this specific article.

I have read the tutorial you linked, but I didn’t find an answer there.

Can you share where you got tripped up?

- On the iNat Crowdin homepage: [https://crowdin.com/profile/inaturalist](https://crowdin.com/profile/inaturalist), click “iNatHelp”
- Select German
- Then search for “captive”. Click the article “What does captive / cultivated mean?”
