This may be the project for you if you are a Resident who:
* whose native language is Brazilian Portuguese,
* you know English well
* and would like to help in localization efforts! 

In Viewer 1.23.4, we publish an improved and completely revised translation into Brazilian Portuguese. If you would like to join the project for the next version of the Viewer, please read the information below and then sign up! You will be contacted when you are given access to the project. There will be a lot of teamwork among translators. Feel free to use the contact email below for any questions too.

'''Please, note that, at this time, we only working on localizations for <i>Brazilian</i> Portuguese.'''

*Familiarize yourself with the Brazilian Portuguese Viewer (1.23.4) first. It is quite different from the one you're used to and many terms have changed. Please follow what's in it. If you have suggestions or things you really disagree with, do not incorporate them in your translations. Rather, send a note in SL or an e-mail to Noelle Linden (noelle@lindenlab.com).

'''A Few Brazilian Portuguese Specifics:'''

*Always use this quotation mark:  ' . Please, do not use curly quotes or double quotes. Also use a non breaking space before colons :

*In English, UI elements often use caps, but in Brazilian Portuguese, only the first world of the UI will be capitalized.

*In English, there is a double space after a period. In Brazilian Portuguese, a single space will be used.

*Use this format: L$ not this format L $.

*Finally, whenever you see long, unclear sentences in English, try to make the Brazilian Portuguese simpler and clearer. Convey the meaning, but not the poor style...

<div style="padding:10px; text-align: justify;">

'''1.''' Log into [http://jira.secondlife.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa Pjira]  with your Second Life name and password. 
If you are reading this prior to signing up for the project: In order for you to be added to the access list for this Pjira project '''you need to have signed into Pjira at least once'''. Please remember to do that prior to signing up for the project:

*<font color=#008000>'''Sign up for the project [http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=rCz4oYbrdLslUgEv2ENO1A_3d_3d HERE]'''</font> 
*<font color=#008000>'''You will also need to agree to the Terms and Conditions located [[Terms and Conditions for Second Life Community Translation Program|HERE]] during the sign up process.'''</font> 

'''2.''' Once you are signed up for the project, and are notified that you have been added, you can [http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/CT-136>'''CLICK THIS LINK TO SEE AVAILABLE SUBTASKS'''] in the Community Translations Project in Pjira.

'''3.''' Click the subtask link of the set of strings you would like to work on '''(currently, we only have testing tasks available; no translation or editing tasks at the moment - more translation tasks are coming in March!).'''

'''4.''' On the left side of the page under "Available Workflow Actions" you will see '''Assign this issue''' > Click on '''to me'''. Now that subtask is in your name. 

[[Image:Pjira1.png]]

'''5.''' On the left side of the page where it says '''Translation in Progress" - Click that link'''. You will see the Status at the top change to: Translation in Progress

'''6.''' Near the top part of the subtask page you will see an attachment. This is the English string document available for translation. '''Download this attachment by clicking the download link.'''

'''7.''' Text for translation will be available to you in .rtf files. Strings that need translation will be well highlighted and hard to miss (the English '''text which needs translation will be in black font''', while the markups and old strings will be in gray font). 


===Here is a sample of a string===
<pre>
		<delta id="forgot_password_text">

			<p1>

				Forgot your name or password?

			</p1>
		</delta>

	</file>

	<file name="floater_hud.xml">

		<delta id=".[title]">
</pre>

*You guessed it: you will need to input your translation '''between <p1> and above </p1>''' and the only translatable text is: "Forgot your name or password?"


'''8.''' Please, '''translate inside the .xml file'''. If you save it as .txt file, you will lose the formatting and it will be infinitely harder to do it. (you'll be more prone to make a mistake). Please, don't do it! :) Don't save them as a .doc or .rtf in Microsoft Office as it will again disturb formatting and we won't be able to import the strings.

'''9.''' '''Please, DO NOT touch the markup (xml) language.''' When you are finished with translation, make sure to '''save the file with the same name but add BR at the end.''' Before attaching it to the JIRA ticket, you may want to zip it (JIRA is sometimes known to corrupt high ascii encodings).

'''10.''' Once you have translated the strings, attach the translation to your subtask '''click on Attach File to this issue'''  link on the left side of the page. Follow the onscreen directions to upload your completed translation. The last thing you need to do is change the status from "Translation in Progress" to "Translated." (Remember: status changes are made on the left side of the page under "Available Workflow Actions" '''click the "Translated" link''').

<div style="background:#CEF2E0">

===Editing===
</div>
'''12.''' Subtask set to "Translated" will be a signal to another translator to come in and edit! '''Editor''' needs to '''Click the Workflow Action - Editing.''' Then, '''download the translation''' and the English original text and make edits to the translation. 

'''13.''' What to look for when you are editing: precision of the translation; terminology selection particularly as it needs to be matched to the translations in the client and any issues with moved xml markings.

'''14.''' After making edits to the translation, the editor will '''upload the edited translation''' to the PJIRA subtask, click on '''Edited''' and '''leave a comment''' on the subtask that reads: "Edits Done." This comment should include any pertinent information, if applicable. Please, do not remove the original translation attachment.

'''15.''' After our quick QA, your translation subtask status will change to Published and you will see your translation live in one of the upcoming Release Candidate viewers!


'''You are done and have helped in the Second Life localization process!   Thank You!  Feel free to take another subtask and start the process again.'''
