== About the narrative format Tomoya uses... ==

Hi, I have an enquiry about the use of "you" in the narrative descriptions.

I noticed it in SEEN4415, in several lines such as line <<0088>>.

<0088> If you look pretty closely, you'll see the stamp "Prefectural Library Book Collection".
// よく見ると、『県立図書館蔵書』と印がおしてある。

To me, this use of "you" sounds extremely unnatural. I know it is not particularily wrong, and in English it is up to the 
author whether they address anyone specifically or not in narrative writing, but in the Japanese context, if anything, I would
say he would be talking about himself seeing it rather than "you" or anyone else. Yes, Tomoya is narrating, but he is not really
aware of the people reading, nor does he ever talk to them directly in the original Japanese, does he? 

So, may I have your permission to, in my editing, change all the unnatural "you"s to "I"s? Of course I will further edit the sentence to make sure it makes sense, for example with the above line I would change it to
"If I look closely, I can see a stamp reading "Prefectural Library Book Collection".

Thanks,

Hello, I would like to participate in the Clannad Translation project, are there certain requirements, and is there a way to contact you or any other project leaders?
Also, I've scrapped 249 lines of translations for SEEN6800 and pasted on its page. I guess it could serve as a reference.

Cheers,

I am in awe of your speed and consistency of translation for Kyou's route.

Hello Velocity7, (a.k.a Image Editor)

I've notice that another user, specifically  [[user:Nightsky87|Nightsky87]] have been contributing a large number of images. As i'am not familiar with that area, unlike your experienced self, can you please make sure that that any other image contributed are within the limits of the website, and that they are only novel related images?

Thanks

Sincerely,

Why did you revert "Endless Eight" back to "Endless August"? The title for this chapter in katakana is エンドレスエイト, as Kinny has said.
