 Each task consists of a language file (a spreadsheet) of about 100 phrases, see the attachments at the bottom of this page, masterLanguageFile1.csv, masterLanguageFile2.csv and masterLanguageFile3.csv. This file needs to be translated to the target language, with the translation in the target column.

 === Review code to for quality of localized strings ===
-'''''Not migrated'''''[[br]]
-Was originally suggested that one task == 3 fixes. I'd suggest that rather than measuring this by the number of fixes, the student is measured by reviewing a complete file (or number of files). They might not find anything to fix but it would still be valuable work if completed competently.

+''''Migrated'''''[[br]]
+Check for:
  * Avoid concatenation of localized strings - use %(variable_name)s instead
- * Avoid non keyboard characters (Excel doesn't handle these)
- * Try to use consistent language
+ * Avoid non keyboard characters (Excel doesn't handle these when it is used to manage translations)
+ * The use of consistent language, eg. Don't use different strings that say/mean the same thing
+This task will require you to submit 3 fixes OR review 5000 lines worth of code (specify which files when you submit) from either the models, views or controllers.
