Portuguese

Hi, just want to explain something that's a little complicated. First, thanks for starting on Portuguese subtitles! However, we go by the ISO standard codes and as such there is no special code for the Brazilian dialect of Portuguese. "br" is reserved for the language Breton. So we've moved stuff to fix it, but in the future please use "pt" for Portuguese subtitles. And again, thanks for your contributions! - Qermaq - (^T/C)  19:39, 30 December 2006 (UTC) (Edit - I mispelled "br" as "bt". Sorry.)

Wait, I wrote "bt"? Blame the keyboard! I'ma go fix that, like, right now. -20eric06 19:42, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

PS. I meant "br", which is for "Brazillian Portguese", "pt" is for "Portgueuse", which comes from Portugal and not Brazil. -20eric06 19:43, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but the standard for these language codes does not recognize Brazilian Portuguese as distinct. See the Wikipedia resource I cited above. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  19:45, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Wait, this all is a misunderstaing lets just forget it all. Can I delete this now? -20eric06 19:50, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

It's your userspace, that's all up to you. Me, I prefer to keep my talk page accessible. And in case it wasn't sufficiently communicated, it's great that you're adding these subtitles. Thanks! - Qermaq - (^T/C)  19:51, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Will you be translating character names any time soon? --Trogga 20:33, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I think that names should not be translate. Also, there are not right translations for some of the characters, so I'll keep them as thy are. -20eric06 21:07, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
