Subtitlers
Subtitlers are Contributors who translate/transcribe from one language into another language. Generally, English subtitlers are Contributors translate/transcribe from the content’s original language into English first.
Once the English subtitles are complete, other language subtitlers translate the English subtitles into other languages (e.g: French, Spanish, Portuguese, etc.)
