+# Localization Subproject
+
+The Kubernetes Localization Subproject is owned by [SIG-Docs](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-docs) and run by the [Subproject leads](#leadership).
+
+The Kubernetes documentation has been localized into several different languages. Each localization is owned by a team of individuals that speaks the language.  A localization team is a self-sufficient community responsible for prioritizing work, translating content, and reviewing and merging PRs into the kubernetes/website repo for their localization. 
+
+The Localization Subproject's aim is to provide a place for localization teams to share ideas and standardize processes across all localizations. This page covers documentation, processes, and roles for the Kubernetes Localization teams and the Localization Subproject.
+

+
+## Localization team structure
+
+Anyone can start a new localization effort for any language or join an ongoing localization team. If you are interested in learning more about specific localization requirements or processes, see the [Localization Contributing Guide](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/localization/).  
+
+Localization teams are self-sufficient communities within SIG Docs and are responsible for
+
+- Localizing content on kubernetes.io into their chosen language.  
+- Timely reviews and merging PRs for their languages according to the [review and merge precesses](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/review/) of the kubernetes/website repo.
+- Building a community that can support their localization efforts. Note that you need at least two contributors to begin a localization team because contributors can't approve their pull requests. You will likely need more contributors, reviewers, and approvers to create a sustainable localization effort.
+- Organizing and prioritizing work to localize content.
+- Understanding and following the [Kubernetes Code of Conduct](https://kubernetes.io/community/code-of-conduct/) within their teams. Questions or concerns around Code of Conduct violations should be raised to the SIG Docs, Localization Subproject leadership, or [Kubernetes Code of Conduct Committee](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/committee-code-of-conduct). 
+
+The Localization Subproject leads and the SIG Docs leadership are always available to help localization teams by answering questions and providing feedback.
+
+### Localization team leads
+
+A leader of a localization team is someone who is responsible for helping to guide the localization efforts for a given language. Its recommended that each localization team has at least 2 leads.   
+
+Some recommended skills for localization leads include, 
+* Excellent written and verbal skills in the given language.
+* Experience with the kubernetes/website repo localization [branching strategy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/localization/#branching-strategy).
+* Experience reviewing English language PRs to develop an understanding the review processes and repo structure. Its recommended that leaders participate in the SIG Docs [PR Wrangler Shadow Program](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/participate/pr-wranglers/#pr-wrangler-shadow-program).
+
+
+## Localization processes
+
+See the [Localization Contributing Guide](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/localization/) for full information on localization processes and policies. This page includes information on [starting a new localization](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/localization/#start-a-new-localization), [branching strategies](https://kubernetes.io/docs/contribute/localization/#branching-strategy) for localizing content, and more.
