Thanks for your note. What's the purpose with that group?

While I personally think that an additional entry point, where 
prospective translators are directed to the right people and resources 
to get started, would be a good thing, that's not exactly what I see in 
the group so far. I see questions about how things work rather than 
useful guidance.

Some basics about Ubuntu translation:

* Prospective translators should be pointed at respective translators 
team at first hand for guidance specific to their language. The way FOSS 
translation is organized differs between the different translators teams.

https://translations.launchpad.net/+groups/ubuntu-translators/

* Ubuntu bugs affecting translations should be reported as such:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations

* The central place for information and discussion about Ubuntu 
translation is this mailing list:

https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators


So if you want to inform about translation through a Telegram group, I 
can think that you should start with finding out how it works. The 
ubuntu-translators mailing list is a suitable place to ask for advice 
and clarifications.
