- In code: `leaders in languages.yaml`
- Also: language leaders

Language leaders decide whether a change to the sentences of their language gets merged, and keep the language correct and consistent. They are listed under `leaders` in `languages.yaml` of the [OHF-Voice/intents](https://github.com/OHF-Voice/intents) repository, which is how GitHub knows whom to ask for a review. See [Language leaders](https://contributors.home-assistant.io/translate/voice/language-leaders/).
