Editing User talk:Eternal Dreamer (section)

==Accel World==

I really hope you decide to translate some Accel World Volumes after translations of DxD.

Yes, I do intend to head over to Accel World section once I'm finished High School DxD, considering how slowed down the translation of it has become. However, I'll be entering university in less than a month, so what translation pace I can keep up after that is still up in the air. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer#top|talk]]) 07:19, 16 August 2012 (CDT)

Sorry, I have been busy lately and haven't had time to check on stuff. Welcome, if you can help finish volume 1, that would be great. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 14:33, 22 August 2012 (CDT)

Feel free to do any improvements you can for volume 1. I was going to get back to it eventually after volume 4, but life caught up to me. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 15:11, 22 August 2012 (CDT)

If you can, a full revamp of volume 1 chapter 5 and 6 would be appreciated. We make do with whatever help we can get, but if possible, we would like to have it as close to the Japanese source as we can help it. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 20:12, 22 August 2012 (CDT)

I haven't thought of it, but that might be a good idea about adding yourself to the chapter translation credit since you are going to change the meaning a lot. Normally changing meaning of a translation require some explanation, and this will probably stop anyone from wondering what you were doing.

Everything in Accel World should be 3rd person in Haruyuki's Point of View. When "I" is used, those are direct thoughts that I usually just put in single quotes, which Zero2001 will later change to italics if he want. Normally, the author preceed direct thoughts with dashes --, but sometimes he doesn't. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 16:19, 23 August 2012 (CDT)

Hello. Zero2001 here. I'm glad more translators are joining Accel World. I look forward to working with you. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  21:48, 23 August 2012 (CDT)

Hi, I'm not sure if you've been informed, but AW may be taken down for an indefinite period of time in about 6hrs time. So, save your data well --[[User:KuroiHikari|KuroiHikari]] ([[User_talk:KuroiHikari|Talk]] | ) 05:06, 29 August 2012 (CDT)

hmm, are you having trouble with it? --[[User:KuroiHikari|KuroiHikari]] ([[User_talk:KuroiHikari|Talk]] | ) 05:46, 29 August 2012 (CDT)

Oh, ok. Try this too, if not never mind --[[User:KuroiHikari|KuroiHikari]] ([[User_talk:KuroiHikari|Talk]] | ) 06:02, 29 August 2012 (CDT)

Go ahead if you want to register for volume 4. I might take a small break after I finish volume 3 chapter 13. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 22:00, 29 August 2012 (CDT)

Hi E-D, I tried to look at your chapter and I think I saw you used some terms differently like <対戦> but since it is a fighting game, Xplorer has been using "Duel" for it and anything else follows. We can have editors change it but you can see some of it [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Accel_World:Names_and_Terminology_Guideline here] for future reference. Also, if you want to discuss changes, we can make a thread for it on the forums. --[[User:Lan013|Lan013]] ([[User talk:Lan013|talk]]) 02:16, 4 September 2012 (CDT)

It's up to you if you're not bothered with it. (In my case, I put page numbers to not lose track since I translate slow.) The problem is... we somehow don't have editors who can check raws. lol. --[[User:Lan013|Lan013]] ([[User talk:Lan013|talk]]) 07:36, 4 September 2012 (CDT)

Uhmm my post above was about your question "''Also, just for future reference, would you prefer if I put chapters pages in chapter text like Xplorer does, to make it easier for editors?''". :) --[[User:Lan013|Lan013]] ([[User talk:Lan013|talk]]) 09:34, 4 September 2012 (CDT)

Thank you for finishing volume 1 so quickly. About the page numbers, they are just in case of rare translator/editor that want to do edits, and partly for myself to keep track when questions come up. It is your choice whether to put them in or not. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 20:39, 5 September 2012 (CDT)

All I can say for advice is try to use the same [[Accel_World:Names_and_Terminology_Guideline|terms]] if we can. We can also talk about the ones that need changing. As for those ' use by the author, they are emphasis, which I used to put in italics. But since Zero2001 changed Haruyuki's thought speeches to italics, I now use '''bold''' for those words. Just place three single quotes surrounding those words will do. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 15:31, 8 September 2012 (CDT)

As I put in the terms page, I used 心意 by itself as Mind Power. If you can find something better maybe we can switch. When the whole thing is spelled out I use Incarnate System as usual. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 14:28, 11 September 2012 (CDT)

Hmm, you are right about it not being too clear in the terms page, so I fixed it. Maybe I had put my usage explanation for it in the chapter instead. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 15:11, 11 September 2012 (CDT)

This is just an anon posting, but could you perhaps translate the author's notes of volume 3? It's not very long (I think) and there are many people that enjoy reading Reki's comments.

I'll have to ask Xplorer30 first, since he registered for that. If he agrees, I don't mind doing it. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer#top|talk]]) 19:36, 16 September 2012 (CDT)

I was holding off doing the volume 3 author notes till someone edit my vol 3 ch 13. But that doesn't seem too likely, so I will probably just finish it soonish. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 15:30, 17 September 2012 (CDT)

Hmm, I find Incarnate way more awkward to use when it does not have a System attached to it. I do admit that Mind Power is a bit simple, but it was all I could think of at that time. If you can suggest a better word that is not Incarnate, I will be willing to consider it. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 16:30, 11 October 2012 (CDT)

Do you know how many places 心意 is used? Sticking Incarnate in those places will make those sentences a total mess. Re-read Sky Raker's explanation before the Incarnate System spelling is used. It is also the author's term there too, non-English version. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 00:47, 12 October 2012 (CDT)

If Incarnate can fit in the sentence without people mistaking it, go ahead and use it. 射程距離拡張 (Range Expansion) - this one I might perfer if you add Attack Range Expansion. The rest seem ok, add them to the terms page if they get used a lot. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 07:24, 12 October 2012 (CDT)

Thank you for continuing to translate Accel World! -Toble007 4:52, 12 October 2012 (CDT)

It's not that I ever stopped. It's just I can't translate as often because of the mess of exams and essays in October and November. I still make sure to post new updates within every two weeks, however, so don't worry. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer#top|talk]]) 17:05, 12 October 2012 (CDT)

If I gave you 20$, would you translate Accel World novel 5 faster :3?

First of all, I'm doing Vol 4, not 5, hahaha...Second, money won't solve the problem, I'm right in the middle of exam period right now. Translating will only get faster in December when I'm free. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer#top|talk]]) 12:18, 28 October 2012 (CDT)

Do you plan to continue translating AW after volume 4? My translation pace is slow and random. So to avoid blocking your progress, I want to check with your plans first. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 19:32, 31 October 2012 (CDT)

That's fine with me if you are willing to translate vol 5 later. Your speed is a lot faster than mine. I will just keep reading and maybe head to vol 6. As for SAO Aria, I need to get the book to see what changed, since I translated the first half of that web version. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 19:05, 1 November 2012 (CDT)

Just wanted to say GREAT WORK so far with AW. Keep it up! :P --[[User:IShiney|IShiney]] ([[User talk:IShiney|talk]]) 14:34, 25 November 2012 (CST)

About adding new terms, go for it. As I mention earlier, if some terms get used often, it's better to put it there so everyone use the same term. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 22:51, 13 December 2012 (CST)

Just add any terms you think is necessary or useful. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 01:33, 14 December 2012 (CST)

Hello, newbie here. I'm about ready to start translating Chinese V5 of Accel World, but I want to let you know first. So, green light, or orange light to divide the parts first? [[User:Tusjecht|&#91;tusjecht&#93;]] ([[User talk:Tusjecht|talk]]) 06:54, 7 February 2013 (CST)

So that was red light. That's fine, I missed out on alot of steps I didn't know, like speaking to Xplorer30. In that case, then I'll do it like this instead: V11 and V12 have no translators as far as I know, I'll work on V11 first then after getting in touch with Xplorer. In the meantime, I want to host the V5 translations on a private blog, to see how my accuracy compares to yours. I'll give you the link if necessary.

I definitely screwed by not talking to Xplorer first, but I am learning after all. Thanks for pointing to me where I should start instead! [[User:Tusjecht|&#91;tusjecht&#93;]] ([[User talk:Tusjecht|talk]]) 07:49, 7 February 2013 (CST)

I think it's fine as long as you quote the source, otherwise, private blog route first. Still, thanks! [[User:Tusjecht|&#91;tusjecht&#93;]] ([[User talk:Tusjecht|talk]]) 08:10, 7 February 2013 (CST)

COncerning Yen Press licensing this, what would happen if they release the 1st volume when you havent finished translating volume 5? [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 10:07, 18 September 2013 (CDT)

Thx for Volume 5.[[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 12:36, 19 October 2013 (CDT)
