What is a batch?

...

Members of a language team can submit multiple words or phrases in batches via a .csv file, to be uploaded to their language site. This allows you to work offline to prepare your entries and once you are familiar with the process it can save you a lot of time.

You must be part of a language team to add new entries. To learn about how language teams work, check out our information on leading a FirstVoices project.

The process for batch uploads is outlined in much more detail here

Note

Attention to detail

The batch upload process does require very keen attention to detail and as such, some users prefer to add entries individually using the online form. If you like data entry and proofreading, batch uploads can be a really efficient way of uploading entries.

Note

Please note that it may take us longer than usual to process your batch uploads, as our FirstVoices development team capacity has been significantly reduced. If you don't hear back in the normal 1-2 week time period after sending us a batch upload, please don't be concerned — our team is working diligently to get them completed in a timely manner, and your batch will be responded to and processed as soon as possible.

If you normally send multiple batches per month, we would appreciate it if you would consider sending one larger batch per month instead. This would reduce the amount of time it takes for us to process multiple batches, and speed up the process for everyone.
