==Tsukumodo edits==
woah, you're russian? didn't see that coming) more on topic - what exactly does this white space nowrap tag do? about the other edits - i'll have to talk it over with the editor, but they all look good to me, so they stay at least for now. thanks.--[[User:Idiffer|Idiffer]] ([[User talk:Idiffer|talk]]) 05:26, 19 August 2012 (CDT)

Yep, I am, St.Petersburg here. :) 'white-space:nowrap' prevents text from wrapping into next next line, so now the contents table looks more readable, but if you don't like it – you can revert it back.  [[User:Dammitt|Dammitt]] ([[User talk:Dammitt#top|talk]]) 06:14, 19 August 2012 (CDT)

don't mean to sound rude, but we have a certain system in place for tsukumodo with a few other ppl involved in the project. the proofreader and editor make changes offline (and then upload on BT), so it's alot of work if a random person makes changes on BT and then we'll have to coordinate that with the offline-edited version. well, mostly, it's just that it's a pain to sift through the history of edits. basically, it's better if you would list what you think is not right with the TL somewhere and point me towards there, and then i will make the changes offline accordingly, and in the right version.
PS. - btw, do u prefer to talk in english or in russian?--[[User:Idiffer|Idiffer]] ([[User talk:Idiffer|talk]]) 14:31, 10 September 2012 (CDT)

Uh, I've made some minor editing and that's it. There were some akward punctuation mistakes and even some sentences were left uncomplete, so I decided to made the corrections. Well, you can revert my edits now and in future just make a note somewhere (on the project main page, probably) saying that editing is done internally so that people wouldn't waste their time/efforts. Sorry for the trouble, I guess I should just abstain from future edits. But let me ask you something: why did you upload an unedited version of the script? I mean the last part, it seemed somewhat raw.

P.S. The language doesn't matter. We can switch to Russian if you want to. [[User:Dammitt|Dammitt]] ([[User talk:Dammitt#top|talk]]) 14:56, 10 September 2012 (CDT)

well, i DO want ppl to edit, it's just that i didn't expect a second edit of a chapter so quick. russian projects on bt aren't edited often. or rather - very rarely. and don't worry, your effort wasn't wasted. so if you don't want to be part of the internal process, still go ahead and edit - it's not THAT much of a pain for me, i probably exaggerated (i'm an energy saver, like Oreki). when the edited versions arrive, i'll add in your changes (though some i may not agree with). on that note, can you give me a link to where you found that "bla bla?.." is correct punctuation? i'm just not sure. Oh, and i uploaded the 3rd part unedited because it's better than having no version at all, i guess. + it takes like forever for the proofreader and editor to go through a part of a chapter. that aside, tsukumodo isn't a project i'm heavily invested in. i'm half-assing the translation because it's not that interesting, but it's the closest to "pleasant" from the other projects which don't have an anime adaptation and aren't being done by other translators. now, when the third volume of zaregoto will be back online - then i'll put in real effort into tl'ing that. that's the plan at least. language - i was having an uberconsiderate moment. english is good - it's constantly getting rusty from lack of communication. PS. anyway, please do not abstain from editing))--[[User:Idiffer|Idiffer]] ([[User talk:Idiffer|talk]]) 22:15, 10 September 2012 (CDT)

hey, you haven't replied in a while. from my experience i should assume you didn't like smth i said... really, it's probably a misundrestanding, if that's the case. i dropped by to say that ?.. was the right punctuation after all. strange that my editors didn't pick up on this. and there's 5 of them. ahhh, finding a good editor is frickin' impossible... at least in russia.--[[User:Idiffer|Idiffer]] ([[User talk:Idiffer|talk]]) 05:10, 6 October 2012 (CDT)

I apologize for not responding to your comment. For some reason I haven't received email notification about it, and I don't visit my talk page at all. In future, if I want to edit smth, should I write about it at the talk page for the chapter I'm editing or edit it right away? I'm not into heavy editing, I'm just correcting grammar/punctuation mistakes, so I don't see any harm in editing the script itself. But of course it's up to you to decide. Regarding this punctuation sign - well, I just know that there is an ellipsis mark, and in case you want to add exclamation or question mark to it, you should just put it instead of the first dot. I can't provide any links or whatever and if I change punctuation when editing, I sometimes can't really explain why it should be this way and not the other way around, I just know that it's correct (it might sound like bragging, but it's not, I'm just confident in my knowledge of my native language).

hey, no worries. but if I were you, i'd still check BT once in a while. this isn't the first time someone told me that he hasn't received notification via email. anyway, just go ahead and edit away. espeacially now. basically the first chapter isn't going to get any more editing other than from you - i'll just correct shit i don't like. when i finish the 2nd chapter - you can go nuts with it cause before posting it i'll hand it over to the fucking best editor i've ever had (following your advice by the way - not uploading the raw TL)

about the puctuation - it's all good. most of my editors say the same thing as you - it's intuitive. and fuck... it is. rules often mess up the flow of a sentence.--[[User:Idiffer|Idiffer]] ([[User talk:Idiffer|talk]]) 09:36, 6 December 2012 (CST)
