It is simple to register as a translator for your language. First access the community translation tool and select your native language, that you are fluent in. You will then be asked to fill in a questionnaire, answering the questions using good English. This is because we try to ensure that those who register will be able to accurately translate the English text into their native language. This helps to improve the translation system for genuine speakers of each language and ensures that the quality of the translation is to a good standard.

Основната работа на системата е както следва:

• Всеки текст (изречение или единична дума) е възможно за превод чрез листове в инструмента за превеждане.
• Регистрирани преводачи дават предложения за всеки текст.
• Тогава преводачите гласуват за преводите на други преводачи.Превода започва с рейтинг от 5. Рейтингът се покачва с едно за всеки положителен вот и спада с едно за всеки отрицателен.
• Периодично (това може да става всеки ден или всяка седмица), всички преводи над определен рейтинг (например 7 или повече) са качвани в сайта. Ако има повече от един превод с рейтинг над 7, преводът с по-високия рейтинг бива използван.

There are 6 'tabs' in the translation tool:

• Untranslated: This contains all the original texts that have not yet received any translation. These are ordered so that the most important texts (those that are essential to understanding the game) are shown first. Texts that have a translation live on the game will not be shown in this listing.
• Awaiting Your Rating - This contains all translations that you have not yet rated. These are ordered so that the most important texts (those that are essential to understanding the game) are shown first. Texts that have a translation live on the game will not be shown in this listing.
• Your Translations - This contains all the texts that you have provided a translation far.
• Awaiting Verification - This contains all the texts that have received at least one translation. Texts that have a translation live on the game will not be shown in this listing.
• In Use - This contains all the texts that have a live translation.
• Search - This allows you to search for original texts or translations. This can be used if you see an incorrect translation in use on the game, or if there is an important text that you want to find to provide a translation.

За да бъде обществената система за преводи ефективна, са нужни хора, които да осигуряват преводи, както и оценки за съществуващите преводи. Всеки оригинален текст е означен от SoccerManager с невидим рейтинг за 'важност'. Целта му е да се измери колко важен за играта е всеки текст. Списъците в системата за преводи са подредени така, че важните текстове да се показват първи. Поради тази причина е добре след като другите преводачи предложат няколко превода, те да бъдат оценявани с цел най-важните компоненти от играта да бъдат въведени първи.

Each translation starts off with a rating of 5. Translations are rated by providing 'good' and 'bad' votes through the translation tool. A 'good' vote increases the rating of the translation by one and a 'bad' vote decreases the rating of a translation by one. When a translation exceeds a pre-determined value (e.g. 7 but may differ between languages), it will be put into use on the game. The 'Awaiting Your Rating' tab is used to rate existing translations as it contains all the translations you have not yet rated. The following rating options are possible:

• Vote translations by other translators as 'good'
• Vote translations by other translators as 'bad' but you must provide an alternative translation or vote an existing alternative as 'good' before placing a 'bad' vote
• Reversing your previous good / bad vote for a translation
• Vote your own translation as 'bad' (if you realise they are incorrect when seen in context for example)

Понякога, неправилни преводи ще бъдат пуснати в играта. Например, някой превод може да получи нужния брой "Положителни" гласове, тъй като е точен превод на оригиналния текст. Когато този превод е пуснат в експлоатация, може да осъзнаете, че текстът е неточен, когато се гледат в контекста. Това може да се случи, ако оригиналният текст има двойно значение. В този случай, SM не може да премахне неправилния превод, тъй като ние не разполагаме с говорители на всеки от поддържаните езици, за да се потвърди, че преводът е неправилен. Това е така, защо се използва системата за рейтинги.

If you do see an incorrect translation, search for it through the 'Search' tab of the translation tool and vote the translation as 'bad'. Provide a correct translation if none has already been provided. Translations which fall below a preset rating will be periodically removed.

You may wish to discuss the translation in the forum with other translators, or send a private message to the translator, to get more 'bad' votes for the incorrect translation.

Very occaisionally, a situation may arise where a translation of the same original text is correct in one place of the game and incorrect in another. This may be the case if the word has a double meaning. In this case, use 'Request help with this text' on the translation tool and then tick 'This string is untranslatable'. In the additional information box, enter the problem with the translation and the two pages where the correct and incorrect translations appear. We will then change the text on one of the pages to remove the conflict.

In some cases, it may not be possible to translate a text without seeing it in context or knowing where it appears on the game. You may be presented with the text 'Forward' and need to know if this means 'Striker' or 'Move in the direction you are facing'. Use 'Request help with this text' on the translation tool and then tick 'I need further clarification on how this string is used'. In the additional information box, enter any information that will help us to understand your problem. When we receive a request for clarification, we will search for the places in the game where the text appears and place a comment on beneath the text that clarifies the meaning.

When you write a translation, a counter at the bottom left of the entry field will show the number of characters remaining. We have to place a limit on this to try to prevent display problems. If you run out of characters, firstly try your best to abbreviate your translation to allow it to fit. If there is no way to fit an understandable translation with the available number of characters, use 'Request help with this text' and 'This string is untranslatable' and enter the translation you would like to use and the number of characters needed in the additional information box. When we receive your request we will extend the number of characters available.
