It's done, but apparently they wanted to keep canthelpit's work up, giving him credit.

Canthelpit gave a partial translation. For consistency's sake, the same translator should do the entire chapter.

However, not wanting to simply throw out Canthelpit's work, it's kept at the bottom of the chapter's page.

canthelpit was the one who suggested splitting the work back then. I only took upon the idea over a month later, when he has apparently went MIA. so now we are awaiting his confirmation.

To avoid confusion, I'm going to split both scripts apart, like the time I translated Melancholy of Mikuru. How long has canthelpit been MIA anyway?

This is really confusing me also. would you like to make a note what the (original work) link means? like maybe put something saying exactly what you just said about not throwing it out?

Chapter 3 was originally registered by Canthelpit, who did ~35% of the chapter.

when he was about halfway through what he had done back then, he had PMed me asking whether I wanna take over from where he would leave off. back then I did not agree since I have some commitments.

by about July, I see that the project had largely stagnated as he said he will be busy for a while. after Magus took over Chapter 1, I thought about taking over Chapter 3 and get it done quick and go back to whatever I had to do.

and so I PMed him again about it, but he did not respond, so I just went ahead from where he had left off with some standardizations.

his work is now the "Original" link, while the "Chapter 3" link is actually where he had left off with my standardizations and the rest of the chapter translated by myself.

clear enough?

We will be keeping his work up until he replies.

if s/he is absents long enough to be classified K.I.A, then B-T will make a decision to remove his script. But her/his name will remain on the registration page for record purposes.

Hope this answers anymore questions.
