In short: Domain blacklisting is broken. So, every email domain is being flagged as blacklisted, preventing password changes. So, the periodic forced password change is now restricting users from the forum. This is probably a server admin thing, so TLG is needed to resolve this issue.

There is currently a problem that prevents emails from working on both the wiki and the forums. Unfortunately, this means account features that use emails as well as general notifications are not functioning. Hopefully it can be fixed soon, but it requires getting in touch with the absent big boss, so it will depend on how soon he can be reached.

'''Update:''' The broken domain blacklist has been disabled, so everyone should now be able to change their password without being identified as a spammer.

As any anonymous user have noticed, there has been a persistent error in the wiki registration process.
 
If you already have an account on the Wiki, you will have no problems registering, however brand new users
 
will be stuck on the first page.

Baka Tsuki has updated and clarified its [[Baka-Tsuki:Machine_Translation_Guidelines| Machine Translation (MTL) policy]], and introduced a new [[Baka-Tsuki:New_Project_Startup_Guidelines#Web_Novel_Projects|policy on Web Novels (WNs)]]. In short, the MTL policy has been clarified that MTL should not be added to the wiki without prior approval, and this applies to external links as well; in addition, the "Preview" tag and template will be retired and replaced with an "MTL" tag and template. For WNs, they will be moved to a new category, and only projects from translators wishing to host text will be permitted in the future. See the [https://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=11131 forum announcement post] and individual policy pages for more details.
Unfortunately, this is not a problem we can solve without the guiding light of our glorious Big Boss & magnificent Founder.

Rest assured, since the discovery of this error, we have already dispatched 3 crack elite recon and special forces from people's Baka-Tsuki Oppression Army out into the wildness to find our Dear Leader. Unfortunately, we have never heard from them again.

Baka-Tsuki Translation Community
About Us
PumkiMpagebanner.png
Baka-Tsuki (BT) is a fan translation community that hosts translations for light novels in the Wiki format. Founded in 2006 by Thelastguardian (初代 - 2006-2016), Baka-Tsuki has since expanded to become the largest fan-based English light novel agglomerate on the Internet. Apart from physically hosting 252 projects in 29 different languages, Baka-Tsuki aims to promote the popularity of light novels and serve as a hub to connect readers with fan translations of East Asian light novels on the Internet.

Baka-Tsuki is not a translation group. Independent translators come to Baka-Tsuki and voluntarily upload their translations to the Wiki for public sharing. Baka-Tsuki does not control what translators choose to translate or how fast they translate. Do not ask when the next chapter will be updated. Read More
