Becoming a Shana Editor

[SkyFlames07]

PS: If anyone else needs more illustrations give me a PM.

The way this ends up going, whoever's going to be the editor for this series may end up as my personal editor for this series.

[Znet25]

so do you still need editors?

[Cosmic Eagle]

Is there anyone here who is willing to edit...? Because if you ask me looking through some of the stuff posted, yes there is dire need of editing.


Mostly just admin stuff and making it neater in a layout though.

If there is a need for editors, Shouldn't one be sure that their skill is worthy enough? Because it's possible to make something decent into something bad? That or at least a supervisor to okay the second/third edition.

[Cosmic Eagle]

Obviously I'll look through any alterations to my work......it's not as if I'll just completely not care.

I never thought that you wouldn't care. My train of thought was more like, "Are they willing to waste time doing so?"

You see vol 22?

More like making certain akward sounding sentences cleaner.

Admittedly, when I translate, I tend to keep the Japanese style of comma comma comma...

I think chapter 3 too.....

You read them yet? Then perhaps you see what I mean if you have.

Shouldn't have any change in meaning....unless you are willing to TLC of course

I'm willing to edit. However, I'm unsure whether I'm good enough. Hum... I'm also not of fan of wiki, So would it be possible just to pm my version to however is willing to check if my work is good enough. Also, Which chapters are needed. Is it all, or just a selected few.

[Cosmic Eagle]

Just vol 22. Chap 2 and 3 being main concern. Rest of 22 is up to you.

Just pm me your ver. when your done with it thanks...

[Rajikai]

Okay. I had a busy... Days. Anyways, I just started to read (I wanted to start with chapter 2 and 3). But I could not understand anything. So I'm just going to edit it as I've interrupted/understood it.

Just a heads up.

Edit: I just noticed it was in 20%, so I'll just start from the prologue.

[Cosmic Eagle]

What.....could not understand anything? Shit, is the translation quality that bad...?

It's not that it's bad. Basically, the way it was worded could have many meanings. I'm trying to keep it as close as to the original as possible. Lets just say it's hard to get the point of a sentence, and reword it into a way that has meaning. Though the process is going, It seems harder than I assumed it would be. Anyways, When I'm done with the prologue, I'll send it to you, and I hope that you could notice any errors that I made on the changes.

[Cosmic Eagle]

Ok, ok thanks...

Yes, I understand what you mean on that....the structure of Jap and Eng are radically different after all...
