To do this properly you should really try to look up the sources that they are quoting and see that it is an accurate translation. Please try to keep all translations are close to the text itself without adding commentary. To look up the sources quickly I highly suggest using a online database. If you are a YU student you can access the  bar ilan and otzar hachachma databases for free through the YU library online (http://www.yu.edu/libraries/online-resources/databases/jewish-db/). If you don’t have access to these, you can still access tons of sefarim for free on www.hebrewbooks.org. Other internet sites with free sefarim include: http://he.wikisource.org/wiki/%D7%A2%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%93_%D7%A8%D7%90%D7%A9%D7%99, http://www.mechon-mamre.org/, http://www.seforimonline.org/, http://www.toratemetfreeware.com/index.html?downloads (includes kitzur yalkut yosef).

Anyway, if you can’t find a source or don’t have the time (which is perfectly fine), just look it over and see that it looks reasonable. If it looks unreasonable please mark it on the talk page or email me. To edit any given page, all you need to do is place a # sign to start a halacha and <ref> tab to start a footnote and </ref> to close the footnote. For more instructions, please see the [[How_to_edit_Halachipedia]] page.

If it looks unreasonable please mark it on the talk page or email me. To edit any given page, all you need to do is place a # sign to start a halacha and < ref> tag to start a footnote and </ ref> (without the space in the middle of the tag) to close the footnote.
