Ok...
Rui, the task is take all candidates who are here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Board_elections/2011/Candidates/en
and translate their statements to here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ Board_elections/2011/Candidates/pt
As you can see there are 19 in the original page, and only 6 in the pt one, so we have 13 to translate _____ *Béria Lima* Wikimedia Portugal http://wikimedia.pt (351) 963 953 042

Am I in the right place, Beria?
The link I saw earlier in this thread is this, http://mail.google.com/mail/?hl=en&shva=1#inbox/130351d4f024ab0c, but these statements are IN Portuguese. I presume then that they must be translated INTO English.
Let me know.
Um abraço,
Rui

Rui,
To translate anything to portuguese - i will REALLY apreciate that, i'm with no time to translate anything today - just choose one, translate and save, and do that until you get tired or finish :) Isn't very likely any other portuguese speaker people would be doing that today, so you don't need to worry about that so much. _____ *Béria Lima* Wikimedia Portugal http://wikimedia.pt (351) 963 953 042

Hi Ryan
I have been editing Wikipedia in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Afrikaans etc for many years, but have never translated internal Wikipedia pages.
How do I go about picking an item for translation, and how would I know if someone else is not busy translating that specific item already?
Regards,

Apparently my last few messages didn't go through to this list. Hopefully this will work...
With less than 19 hours until the Board elections start, there are an alarming number of languages where not all of the candidate statements are translated (seven of the top ten language Wikipedias are not completely translated!)
- German (6 statements not translated)
- Italian (1 statement)
- Japanese (~8 statements)
- Polish (2 statements)
- Portuguese (13 statements)
- Russian (~11 statements)
- Spanish (13 statements)
There are many more languages outside the top ten that are not completely translated. We want to make sure that voters have access to candidate information in as many languages as possible, and your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Ryan
