Just a bit of a heads up about editing High school DxD. In the guidelines it says "All edited translations are to be in British English." Just wanted to inform you after i saw some of your edits were using American English spelling, eg. defense vs defence --Ff7 freak 02:19, 2 June 2012 (CDT)

Sorry about this Dan, but I'm going to have revert your tense changes. Character narration should be present tense, not past. Can I ask you go back and keep the narrative in present from now on? --Hiro Hayase 21:19, 3 June 2012 (CDT)

Ok. Sorry about that. I'll look over all the chapters I edited and fix them. Thanks for telling me. --Dan1023 22:56, June 3, 2012

Okay thanks, but unfortunately I had to revert your other changes too when I initiated the rollback action. Your other changes beside the tense changes were correct for the most part, if possible can you make them again? --Hiro Hayase 22:18, 3 June 2012 (CDT)

Sure, that's fine. By the way is it okay if every once in a while if one word is in past tense because there have been 2 or 3 situations where the sentences have sounded weird in present tense. Other than that I'll put all the narrative in present tense. --Dan1023 23:52, June 3, 2012

Sure, but it's going to depend on the circumstances. The narrative just need to be in present tense for the most part, it can have some past tenses. --Hiro Hayase 23:47, 3 June 2012 (CDT)

Thanks. Is there a way I can make leave a marker or make a note to show if I need someone to double check a part of my editing? Or is there a place I can post a section of an edit to be looked at by other editors before updating the official translation?--Dan1023 01:03, June 4, 2012

Umm... the High School DxD main forum I guess. Just post your edited parts and where its from, then hopefully someone will check it there. You can post parts that your unsure of how to fix or confusing typos there as well. The forum link is on the DxD main page. For the forum it might be better to create an account there.--Hiro Hayase 00:08, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

Ok. Thanks. Also when you did the rollback on my edits, was it only on my Volume 12 Life -1 edits or all of my edits? --Dan1023 01:10, June 4, 2012

Just Volume 12 Life.-1 for now.--Hiro Hayase 00:59, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

Ok. I'll fix the rest of my edits later today --Dan1023 10:47, June 4, 2012

Why exactly are you changing High School DxD vol 11 Life 1 to present tense? Original uses past tense... --User:Sinsi 23:34 4 June 2012

Ohh, I didn't know that. I was asked to change anything I edited to present tense because on the "High School DxD: Names and Terminology Guidelines" page it says to edit narratives to be in present tense. I had changed a lot of it to past tense yesterday so I was undoing my changes and changing the rest. I'm sorry if i'm wrong. Should I change the tense back? If so i'll doing manually because I made a few other changes other than changing the tense of words. --Dan1023 16:16, June 4, 2012

No, its fine. Code-Zero confirmed the change to present tense for the narrative. You can use past tense, if the narrator is talking about a flashback or an event in the past. --Hiro Hayase 15:45, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

Ok. Thanks again. Should I continue changing my edits to present tense when necessary or leave them in past tense? --Dan1023 17:25, June 4, 2012
