"Projects with waiting strings" page is not working

[akirk]

On a page like ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/zh-tw/default/waiting it always says

No projects with strings awaiting approval!

Even though there are quite a few strings waiting, for zh-tw for example, as per ​https://translate.wordpress.org/stats/ it's more than 20k.

It's quite curious, the tab "Waiting" next to WordPress Themes Plugins Meta Apps is only there sometimes:

• ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/zh-tw doesn't have it
• ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/zh-tw/default/waiting doesn't have it
• ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/de has it
• ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/de/default/waiting has it, too

Was this "Projects with waiting strings" page planned to be removed?

The waiting tab is for Translation Editors only at present, if you don't have the rights to validate strings for a locale/project, then you won't see it.

If you have rights to validate for a specific project, you'll only see that project.

Oh, that makes sense for German, then (I'm a TE for a project). Thanks for your explanation!

Would you agree, though, that this warrants better error messages to know what's going on?

[dd32]

It definitely does.

It took me a few moments to remember how the tab worked :)

I'm a GTE for en_GB. The ​https://translate.wordpress.org/stats/ page says we have 5 waiting, but the ​https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/en-gb/default/waiting is empty.

I believe this was fixed by [2064]
