Richimax: /* Hello!!! someone lives here? */ new section

Hm? Is it already an aproved full project? --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 01:13, 29 April 2011 (UCT)

Doesn't look to be, but seems to fulfill all requirements: only thing left is for someone to make it official and place it in the sidebar (as far as I can tell). Oh, and to remove the teaser category when they do. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 01:27, 29 April 2011 (UCT)

.....it's become one of my fav LN. Thanks a lot for translating this, and sorry 'cause I just can cheer you from afar (can help with translating, and English isn't my mother languange so I can't speak it well). Keep going, you can do it~~ :) - [[User:RasteShelphyd|RasteShelphyd]] 09:02, 29 May 2011 (UCT)

== Italicizing of Japanese honorifics ==

'''EDIT''': Please discuss this in the Rental Magica [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=1895&p=86615#p86615 thread].

So I was wondering what exactly should be the standard for this? I personally am not a fan of italicizing them, because it makes it seem as though they should be emphasized. It also seems to break the flow of the sentence, at least for me when I'm reading through it. Also, how are you going to deal with it if someone starts using a honorific sarcastically? I do however agree with italicizing of Japanese terms that appear only once for which there is no English translation. Recurring Japanese terms I think can be italicized the first time and in future times they can be left as normal. What are others' thoughts on this?

On an unrelated topic, what are other people's thoughts on references vs mouse-over text? My stand is that short translations of Japanese terms with no ready English translation that I stated above as well as phrases with double-readings (eg an English word with Japanese furigana or technical terms particular to this story that is better when left in Japanese but we want to provide readers with an English translation) should use mouse-over text, whereas others should use references.

Is there no forum or something we could use to discuss things like this?

Yes: the forum listed on the left of the screen. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 04:16, 7 June 2011 (UCT)

I meant one specific to Rental Magica. I guess there isn't, probably because the project isn't big enough...? --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 16:25, 7 June 2011 (UCT)

There is a thread in the Aux Brigades forum.--[[User:Amazing Buffalo|Amazing Buffalo]] 19:12, 7 June 2011 (UCT)

== Rental Magica: Magical Method Encyclopedia ==
question:

is: Rental Magica: Magical Method Encyclopedia レンタルマギカ魔導書大全 (December 2007, ISBN 978-4-04-424917-5)
a proper volume? it's listed in series information, but not in area where translations are linked to. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 04:16, 7 June 2011 (UCT)

It's an illustration book with two short stories in it. I unfortunately don't own it so if I made a section I wouldn't know what to put under it. For the three most recent volumes, I at least know there are going to be illustrations.--[[User:Amazing Buffalo|Amazing Buffalo]] 07:36, 7 June 2011 (UCT)

== More Chapters ==

Can anyone tell me when this is going to get more chapters?

Richimax:

Hola Sysifo9.

Me interesa participar en este proyecto como editor. No sé nada de japonés, pero mi español es decente, así que si sigues trabajando en estas cosas, mándame un correo a nausicaasantiago@gmail.com o comenta mi página de discusión.

Saludos.

Que tal Sysifo9, espero no molestar y no equivocarme al escribir aquí pero no conozco bien las herramientas de Baka-Tsuki aún.

Quisiera colaborar contigo en la traducción de Monogatari ya que me quede con las ganas de saber que había pasado después de Koyomimonogatari (me quede estupefacto con el final de la animación) y también porque tal vez halla cosas que no salieron en la animación.
Me acabo de registrar en Baka-Tsuki, así que me encuentras con el Nick de Richimax o escríbeme a newsaintgeminis@hotmail.com y responderé lo mas pronto posible.
Hasta luego!!!.
