Key for European and Brazilian Portuguese
Distinction is made between the two major standards of the language -- Portugal (EP) and Brazil (BP). Neither variant is preferred at Wikipedia, except in cases where a local pronunciation is clearly more relevant, such as a place in Brazil or a Portuguese artist.
National variant differences should be noted with discretion: when there are differing dialectal Brazilian Portuguese pronunciations, the one closest to the European Portuguese should generally be preferred, as this guideline is intended to help native speakers of other languages.
