How do you become a translator for this site?

Post by IronyCat »

Since it's summer, I would really like to put my bilingual skills to use. I have used this site before and would like to help translate. But how?

Though they are still a draft version, they will soon be approved after some (if required) changes.

Check for Translator Conventions

To sum it up, just join an existing project or launch a new one.

You can esk moderators for more details, it you haven't understood the guidelines.

Basically, go onto the page of the project you want to work on, and scroll down to see if there is a "Project Manager" / "Supervisor" listed. If there is, send a message to them saying that you would like to help with the project, they will guide you from there.

If the project you want to help out on has neither of these listed, instead, message the Translators that are listed as "Active".

If Project Managers, Supervisors, and Active Translators are all missing. You can probably just hop on, just make sure to edit the Registration Page to list what chapter you're picking up.

If you want to start a brand new project, I think you just open a thread on Future Project Suggestions?

That's pretty much right. xD
