The volunteer information on this page is now out of date and will be kept for historical purposes. Please do not update information on this page.
The Second Life Knowledge Base is now on the Community Platform.
This is place to keep working notes on translation efforts there.

- Sign in in Second Life Knowledge Base in Lithium.
- Got to the English Knowledge Base and find the article you have choosen for translate.
