And if you do decide to edit, just go here, add your name under the 'Editors' list and you're good to go. Just edit whichever chapter you want, whenever you want/get time. But make sure to familiarise yourself with the General Format/Style guidelines(the link is on the project page) so that you don't get on the bad side of any translator/other editors. :lol:
Also, try your best not to change the meanings of the text, unless it's absolutely necessary, in which case message someone in charge(Supervisor, translator, other editors) to discuss the situation before making the edit.

Good luck. :wink:

id really like to help.. but im having trouble in creating my own account.. what's this open proxy all about.. i looked it up in the internet for fine solutions.. but nothing helps at all...!

wondering if u know what to do about this? id gladly appreciate it.. :)
If you mean that you cannot create an account because your IP is listed as open proxy, then go here and discuss it.

Please do not just add your name to the editors list willy-nilly. Generally, it'd be better to contribute an adequate amount first before doing so since there are many who just edit a few things and disappear forever after that. At least that's how I think of it.

Well, maybe you can let them add their name to the list and then make contributions? :lol:
IMO some people feel more motivated to edit a series if their name is on the project's editor list. Plus, you can always remove them from the editor list if they haven't made any noticeable contributions to the project after a certain period of time has passed since the last translation update.

+1 TJP
+0 Rohan

The list will just go on increasing if they add their names. (Nobody erases their name if 'wish to quit)

I said it because I saw that it had virtually no regular editors working on the project, besides TJP himself.
And I meant that the supervisor/translator/editor could remove the names of inactive editors, I don't trust people to remove their names themselves either :lol:

Let the interested take permission from the translator. Else scrap the names. At later stage, this Will become a requisite.

It's not just me by myself. I have people who help me with translating questions and point out my errors (however I'm the one who goes in to edit in their suggestions for the most part, which I actually prefer this method) and they don't care at all about taking credit or being on the editors list. I appreciate your concern but I'm not exactly desperate for help.

But your TLns looks like they don't require much from editors. Atleast after it is posted here.

*My thoughts*

Required reading for all prospective editors. You don't want to become another project killer, do you?

Long story short, don't go doing things on your own liberty, let peachy decides it.
