This project is a second-generation resurrection of the translation project effort that started in 2005. The Clannad translation effort was originally started by Soulfang, then resurrected as an open collaboration by [[User:Velocity7|velocity7]] in 2007, and finally re-resurrected for polishing by [[User:Polarem|Polarem]] in 2011.
Special thanks goes to Haeleth for the development of the RealLive tool ([http://dev.haeleth.net/rldev.shtml RLdev]), which has made patch processing possible.

If any groups are interested in using the script files for their own CLANNAD translation project, such as a foreign language, please contact the Project Administrator. Also, please be advised that, until this project is complete, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or cleanliness of the translation, and therefore advise that you hold off on such requests until that happens.
   
Please note that we are looking for experienced programmers who are willing to look at the tool source code to allow for automatic line breaking as well as variable width fonts. If you feel up to the challenge, please post in the [[Talk:Clannad|discussion]] page.

Although this is '''not''' an indication that the patch is in any way, shape, or form, near completion or readiness to release to the public, you may find this information useful.
Generally speaking, the [[Format_guideline|guidelines]] associated with the Suzumiya Haruhi novel translation project can be followed, but there are several amendments that have been made in order to accomodate the unorthodox nature of this project. Please see the '''[[Clannad:Guidelines|Clannad Guidelines]]''' for details.

If you wish to make any comments on the quality of the editing or translation of a SEEN file, please visit the link in question and make your comments on its respective Talk/Discussion page.
 
 
To assign yourself a SEEN file, simply click on any of the links and either create a new page (using the format used in existing SEEN pages) or add yourself to the translator list in an existing page. '''A key thing to note is that more than one translator can work on a single script.'''
 
 
There are two sets of files that do need to be translated; the Kepago source code files (< 1% of translation) and the actual story content files (99% of translation). You may download these here:

Project Summary

Clannad is an all-ages visual novel adventure developed by Key/VisualArts, released in 2004. More information is available at the Wikipedia article.

This project is a second-generation resurrection of the translation project effort that started in 2005. The Clannad translation effort was originally started by Soulfang, then resurrected as an open collaboration by velocity7 in 2007, and finally re-resurrected for polishing by Polarem in 2011. If any groups are interested in using the script files for their own CLANNAD translation project, such as a foreign language, please contact the Project Administrator. Also, please be advised that, until this project is complete, we cannot guarantee the accuracy or cleanliness of the translation, and therefore advise that you hold off on such requests until that happens.
