Why change シル・フローヴァ [Syr* Frova] to Seal Flover? Seal is written in katakana as シール, so it is a completely wrong romanization... [[User:SinsI|SinsI]] ([[User talk:SinsI|talk]]) 17:52, 14 March 2014 (CDT)

:I know that. If you look carefully at the terminology page, I did show the proper romanization in brackets. It is just because I feel awkward when I'm translating with those terms just like how Aizu -> Ais for a while, which I changed back. But for now, I'm sticking with Seal, at least until another translator shows up and discuss this matter with me. [[User:Jn19930|Jn19930]] ([[User talk:Jn19930#top|talk]]) 21:09, 14 March 2014 (CDT)
::Wouldn't Sill Frova be better? Those are actual first/second names that, according to Wikipedia, romanize into シル and フローヴァ .[[User:SinsI|SinsI]] ([[User talk:SinsI|talk]]) 02:59, 15 March 2014 (CDT)
:::According to dammitt, Syr Frova was confirmed by images on the Vol 3 Booklet that came with the limited edition version of Vol. 3. I don't have it so I can't confirm that. [[User:Jn19930|Jn19930]] ([[User talk:Jn19930#top|talk]]) 15:22, 15 March 2014 (CDT)
:::And tbh the author seems to play around the names a bit, like changing the name slightly making it difficult to find the name we are looking for. So I wouldn't exactly bother with the naming issue, at least until another translator comes in [[User:Jn19930|Jn19930]] ([[User talk:Jn19930#top|talk]]) 20:41, 15 March 2014 (CDT)

Thank you for the translation you have done up till now and best of luck for your exams, kinda ask a question will you translate all volumes of DanMachi....because I can't read Japanese and I want to read this....Oh by the way when are your final ending?

:I'll probably translate all the volumes of DanMachi as long as there is a Chinese TL for it (It's currently up to Volume 4. Someone is doing the Side-Story about Aizu Wallenstein which isn't completed yet). About my finals, it's ending on Apr 30th, but I have a two weeks break now, which I'll attempt on finish Chapter 5 and start on Chapter 6. I just finished 3 finals in 4 days yesterday so I don't exactly know when I'll start working. [[User:Jn19930|Jn19930]] ([[User talk:Jn19930#top|talk]]) 20:04, 18 April 2014 (CDT)

At the moment I don't have access to a computer other than a tablet (can't make an account past the cats), but I would be willing to help with this.  I don't know Japanese, but I've got a solid 6 years of Mandarin and I'm a native English/Greek speaker.  Many of the sentences translate with awkward grammar,  and I was wondering if you would be willing to look at some of my suggested edits.  I couldn't find the Mandarin TL, however.  A link to that would help, so I could try to inform my edits at least one level back.  I should be back in front of a real computer on Monday. Thanks for the work so far, ~Volos.

Hello! Hello~~ Umm... I've actually noticed some very basic mistakes in the editing from the DanMachi series, but I'm not pointing that out to insult your work. The editing errors actually very simple; nonparallel(problem between time tenses [past, present and future]) sentences [and there are a lot of these], that makes it feel a little awkward to read. There's also an additional problem with English grammar, a lot of commas are put in unnecessary situations; for example putting a comma before 'that' makes the reading less fluid. You can fix it on your own terms but I'd actually like to offer my own editing help since my current project(OreShura) is a little inactive at the moment. Just use my talk page if you're interested. I'll probably read the novels before I help out if you accept my offer. [[User:OhHaiTHar|OhHaiThar]] ([[User talk:OhHaiThar|talk]])
