Hi Stepan
I can answer your last question: no, this project is open to absolutely everyone, whether they're members or not.

I don’t mean this project. I mean a field in my proz profile. Other fellow translators can somehow insert a link to their ‘Words Donated’ count for example. I can’t find a way to add this information in my profile.
What regards the project, you made it clear to me at the very beginning of this topic and I confirm I have understood that well.

Oops sorry! A case of what the French call "diagonal reading"!

Hi Stepan. That particular field is based on words translated for Translators without Borders. It used to update itself automatically, but, as I understand it, this is no longer the case, as the system TwB is using is different and does not "connect" to one's ProZ.com profile. If you have done work for TwB, please put in a support request, and the team can add that for you. They may need information such as your current wordcount or your Kató profile (the platform TwB is using now).

Yes, after my Support Request was answered, I checked, and I was able to set it to my preferred choice.
Are you going to announce the addition of this new field to all members?
Or was the email I got the announcement?
What are the default settings of the radio buttons and the display checkbox for ProZ members, who have never participated in TWB? (See below)
I am willing to consider doing volunteer (i.e. "pro bono") work for non-profit organizations
o Yes
o No
o I prefer not to decide right now

I don't believe there will be a wide announcement on this, no. I imagine that as Andrew moves forward with the project, word will get out and those who are interested will indicate that interest. For those who are not interested, no action is required.
The default for this field is nothing, i.e. no selection until the profile owner makes a selection.
