Empire of Brazil
Thank you very (and very) much for your help in the article Empire of Brazil!! I was there all by my self! - --Lecen (talk) 19:30, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * No problem! Ed asked me to check it for grammar and whatnot, and I'm quite happy to look at it. Icy  // ♫ 19:32, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * About the "small boats" issue in the Armada section on Empire of Brazil article: in portuguese, it meant "vinte pequenas embarcações". I´ve translated wrongly as "20 small boats" when the correct should be "20 small ships". - --Lecen (talk) 19:53, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the clarification. If there are any other instances like it, I'll rely on you to clear them up for now as I'll be away from comp for a little. Icy  // ♫ 19:55, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I think there isn´t any. You´ll see at some points ships called "brig-schooners" or other mix types. It´s because the names in portuguese (like "charrua") do not have an english version. Those are types that have characteristics from one and other type of ships that makes them a mix of both. Instead of 1.0 or 2.0, it´s like a 1.5, you know? - --Lecen (talk) 19:59, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yep, I get the concept. On how to address it, I think the current approach is fine - I'm not familiar with the subject and would recommend looking at articles dealing with similar things if you're not sure. Icy  // ♫ 20:41, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
