Editing User talk:Verse (section)

== Uploading Translations ==
Hi Verse! As a fellow user, first, I'd like to thank you for your contributions to the Mushoku Tensei project. Absolutely amazing job! And to actually make sense of that crappy machine translation...you're beyond me.

Second, a small caution. I'm not exactly sure how strictly this is enforced, but be cautious about putting machine-translated work into the main chapter links. It would be much safer for you to put them in 'preview' pages, as was done in the last few volumes. Recently, I did a mass edit for Tate no Yuusha, and attracted the attention of higher management. Check out my talk page to get an idea of what rules and such are around. They also gave me a link to the official rules [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Baka-Tsuki:Machine_Translation_Guidelines here]. If I got this many warnings just for shifting machine tls into PREVIEW pages, I doubt what you're doing is legal. Still, you aren't editing many chapters at once, so you probably won't attract as much attention as me. You'll probably get away with it. I hope. Best of luck!

Verse: That seems to be the case, eh? I was unaware. It kind of sounds like a joke that Baka-Tsuki has a bunch of "senior translators" lying around to proofread everything. If the TL scene had those kinds of resources, then randoms like me popping up wouldn't be necessary. I hope I'm wrong, but my general impression is a lack of activity on this site. I don't know how to delete pages, so I can't really undo my mistake. I'll keep in mind to only use preview pages in the future. I'm not in a position to effort this "problem" at the moment and pursue a solution. Baka-Tsuki & users are free to do whatever they want with my work.

Btw, I read Tate No Yuusha as well. If you were the dude who was rehosting and editing all the chapters, then I really appreciate that. You're doing a good job. Your TLCed versions were much easier to read than those horrible machine translations that randoms were linking on pastebin. Those kinds of guys were the reason I don't freely distribute my app, it's far too easy to produce bad English TLs. Then again, I may be doing something similar, but life is hypocrisy so whatever.


Agreed. There's a page somewhere with all the recent edits available to users with special rights, and some keep their eye on it for monitoring. You probably won't be noticed unless you continuously do major changes, like me, or have a bad history. Deleting pages is a power given to senior users who distinguish themselves; we haven't been around long enough. 

Glad you like it! I couldn't take clicking so many links to so many sites, so I decided to just edit/shift them all here, with the translators' permission. Thankfully, there's a few good TLs who do some editing when some new guy posts a bad translation, so general quality is high. I've read your machine Tls, and they're definitely high quality, don't worry. Though coming from me, who has no TLC abilities, that statement probably isn't reliable.

Well best of luck, and once again, thanks for TLing![[User:Subsinexus|Subsinexus]] ([[User talk:Subsinexus|talk]]) 22:02, 28 November 2014 (CST)
