Ore to Kanojo ga Geboku de Dorei de Shuujuu Keiyaku

Hello. I noticed that you added yourself as project manager for Ore to Kanojo ga Geboku de Dorei de Shuujuu Keiyaku. Do you intend to add the translated text to BT, or just add links to an external site? As a note, in most cases translators are just linking to an external site. Another policy that might be relevant in this case is that BT doesn't link to external sites that take donations for the translations. --Cthaeh (talk) 22:49, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

• I just realized one of my sentences cut off unintentionally; I meant to say "in most cases translators are just linking to an external site, they are not eligible to be project manager." Expanding on that, it's fine if the text is also on an external site, or was put up there first, but a "project manager" is a position mostly for managing the text on BT, so links and external sites don't count towards it. --Cthaeh (talk) 23:15, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Replying on the question of whether donations are okay for other series, even though there isn't a specific donation quota for the Ore to Kanojo... project on your blog, the fact that there is a donation system for others or in general is enough to trigger to policy. A casual link on your user page might be fine/overlooked, but there shouldn't be links on the project page directing people there to read. If you choose to put the text on BT (presumably with it also being on your blog with whatever system you like) without linking to you site, then the BT policy against links to sites with donation systems wouldn't apply. --Cthaeh (talk) 23:15, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Please be aware that because your site continues to explicitly solicit donations for translations, which is incompatible with the External Translation Groups policy Cthaeh noted above a year ago, the external site links from the Baka-Tsuki project have now been removed after Executive Council review, and your contribution credit has been rescinded. --KLSymph (talk) 14:28, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
