Nova Iguaçu
I have reverted your edit to the Nova Iguaçu article, because it appears that you ran the Portuguese version of the article through a rough machine translation and then dropped that rough translation into the English language page. While it is entirely proper (even encouraged) to translate material from one Wikipedia to another, it is never acceptable to simply drop unimproved machine translation into a page. Among other things, the machine translation assumed that "Nova Iguaçu" should be translated as New Delhi, rather than simply leaving the name unchanged. If there are facts in the Portuguese article that you believe should be in the English article, then add them, with proper translation. If you are unable to provide a suitable Portuguese to English translation, then leave the job to someone else. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:11, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
