How to take HIV Medicine Russian - Finished.  Thank you very much!
Hello, My name is Mariela Angelova and it's my first time translating here so I have a question. Do I have to translate in my mother languagq the numbers at the beginning of every sentence that go from 1 to 300 for example? Thank you for your reply!
Hi Mariela, I dont think it is important to translate the line number as long as the translation remains attached to the original line. I know that most translators havent but we will check with Bev Pettle at TME to be sure and update the instructions if necessery. Thanks for your very good question!

Hi Mariela, Rick is correct in saying that the numbers do not need translating. They are just there so that we can match up the translated phrases with the English phrases. Bev at TME, 9 November 2012
Thank you for all of the recent work, with a special mention to the Russian and Vietnamese translators.  Dangers of Smoking - Vietnamese is very nearly finished with only a missed line at 108! Rick359 (talk) 19:44, October 31, 2012 (UTC) The language Oromiffa has now been added with lesson pages.
Thank you all who have been editing recently and for your comments. The wiki has not had much use yet and we are still learning how it may be best presented.
Editing one line of the script at a time but using the edit link associated with that line will be the best way to avoid formatting mistakes and should be quicker to load. It can be tediously slow when the internet is busy or on a slow connection speed. TME has copies of all the English scripts which can be printed and sent to Bev Pettle (see web site for contact details.) There is a lesson/language table which shows which lessons have already been translated and this is reflected in the lessons that are available for translation in this wiki.
Translating a whole lesson is quite a task as it involves the suitable use of language to properly reflect the meaning. The benefit of the wiki is that any work you do is saved for someone else to complete. Whether you prefer to work on parts of the script or the whole script is a personal preference and either approach is very welcome.
