== Slashdog novel ==

So with the release of the new Slashdog novel, which is essentially the same as the web novel with added illustrations and minor alterations, I plan on transitioning the current version to match the novel. I haven't quite decided how I want to handle cases where the wording changed from one version to the other, but my current inclination is to go with the novel version both here and on my blog, with myblog perhaps containing notes of where changes have been made. --[[User:JeruTz|JeruTz]] ([[User talk:JeruTz|talk]]) 23:03, 16 November 2017 (CET)

A short update on the Slashdog LN. First of all, it has been confirmed (or so I've been told) that Slashdog will be getting its own LN series, with the next volume coming out in about a month. As for the first volume, I have reviewed up through chapter 3, which puts me at about 45% completion. While there haven't been many major changes, I have found numerous areas where my previous translation wasn't as accurate as I would've liked it to be (the web novel was my first project after all) so there are quite a few differences in the translated version.

The big question now though is how to go about posting it. I've essentially come up with 4 possibilities:

1. Replace the web novel version in its entirety and continue posting Slashdog volumes under the DxD project.
2. Replace the web novel translation as above but retain the PDF and EPUB links for the web novel version.
3. Leave the web novel as is and add the LN version in addition to it (though I'd recommend notices to help new readers avoid any confusion).
4. Create a separate project page for all the Slashdog light novels and include a link in the DxD project description (and vice versa).

Personally, I'm leaning towards options 2 or 4, but I would like to hear (or read as it were) what others feel is most appropriate.--[[User:JeruTz|JeruTz]] ([[User talk:JeruTz|talk]]) 00:49, 11 February 2018 (CET)

Practically speaking, creating a separate project page for Slashdog is the best choice, with a link in DxD project page. However, since the story is just a side story completely connected to DxD, and if the no. of LN is expected to be 2-3, then it's better to just create space for Slashdog LN in DxD page itself. The choice is completely dependent on how you(as a translator) and Project Manager feels about it. I will recommend using the same page, as the readers will ultimately be the current DxD readers ...  --[[User:Robinhood1|Robinhood1]] ([[User talk:Robinhood1|talk]]) 15:56, 11 February 2018 (CET)
