- We support tags based on practicality, usage, and community approval

## Translations
21+
22+
* English translations for the `terms`-key should be added to the JSON data ([Exampple](https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/blob/main/data/presets/natural/shrub.json#L16-L19)).
23+
24+
* Apart from that, translations are managed [in the Transifex Project of the iD Editor](https://www.transifex.com/openstreetmap/id-editor/) inside the translation resource _'preset'_.
25+
26+
To change translation, you can [open the translation page](https://www.transifex.com/openstreetmap/id-editor/translate/), select a language, select _'preset'_ and search for `key:living_street` or `translation_text:'Living Street'` to find and change translations.
27+
28+
To contribute to a language: [Select a language](https://www.transifex.com/openstreetmap/id-editor/languages/) and use 'Join team' to request access. The administrators will approve requests routinely, only rejecting requests for overly specific locales.
29+
30+
* All translation changes will be released whenever [a new id-tagging-schema release is created](https://github.com/openstreetmap/id-tagging-schema/releases). They will be visible inside iD and other editors once those editors update their dependencies and release a new version as well.
