Hey! Pleasure to be working with you.

For the curious, I'm male, 20 years old, and studying electrical engineering in Texas. I enjoy- wait, no; this is starting to look like a dating profile or something. Never mind!

Currently Editing:
Oda Nobuna no Yabou, Volume 4

My Philosophy:
I didn't join BT to fix all the things. What I do want to do though is take every lightly garbled sentence I find and straighten it out; to sort of prepare it for the localization step. I'm not sure yet if I'm cut out for completely "fixing" Light Novel chapters, but I feel that fly-by misspelling or preposition edits aren't enough sometimes. Often from the side it looks like someone is patching a missing limb with a band-aid. Blood is still going to get everywhere, and people are going to run away. If I'm more than a volume into a series, I love the story enough to want to put in time so others can love it more easily. And besides, there's a revert button if I screw up, so I feel I have literally no reason not to help.
My approach, therefore, is to start reading an interesting looking series, and if I get into it and it gets rough, I'll start editing as I read.
