[mod] Calling Scanlators

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Due to the rising number of members and able-bodied people who can scanlate, it has been brought to my attention that we would probably need a check sheet of who is doing what so that scanlations will be more efficient and there will be less bumps of "I am doing the same project, oops" incidents.

If you are a scanlator, or are working on a scanlation, please post here with

-your username
-the strip you are currently working on
-the strip you will "claim" to translate
-the link to the strip in question

If in the event that you are dropping out of a claim to a strip, please also inform the other scanlators so that the scanlation can be made.

Please check the "scanlation" tag to see which strips have already been scanlated.

This post will be linked in the link list on the main page of the community. It will be checked and updated as scanlations are claimed.


Current claim list:





gomidog
Traits of Japanese people that American-kuns have noticed
Chapter 5 omake]
Comic Diary 10: 4th, 5th strips
Comic Diary 11: The last strip
and all of comic diary 4

dawnelkin/minji
-Diary Comic 8

lawlchan and kyonko_ishikawa

Summary of the War of Austrian Succession

hikaru_kaitou
-Alien Photoshop




ALSO, concerning rules, as a reminder:

-please make sure your posts have SOMETHING to do with Hetalia. Making a post that says "I saw a kid who looks like ____________" or "I saw a ton of flags lined up together and Japan's was next to Italy's" constitutes as SPAM unless you have something more substantial to go along with the post---like icons, banners, fics, fanart, etc. Just a photo or a video link of the above mentioned would constitute as spam and is better put into your personal LJ.

-DON'T FORGET TO CREDIT FANARTISTS/NICO NICO VIDEOS for any icons or banners that you make! It's as posted in the rules--fanart icons are allowed so long as at the end of the icon post, you post the list of fanartists' sites that you got them from. If you downloaded them from 4chan, please say so or ask others to tell you if they know. Most of us have bookmarks of our fave artists and would know where those pics came from.

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Aaah, this is where this list is useful.

-I have already done the Swedish-Polish Wars, it's uploaded, and I am currently working on the Su-san and Dog series, if that is okay? Or since you have already done it...

[moriyama-umi.livejournal.com]

Amazing timing for this post, 'cause I just started translating something last night ^^

Username: moriyama_umi
The strip you are currently working on: Teeny China & Japan's Conversation

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Awesome, thank you!

Now that I think about it, maybe we should also link the strip in question, just in case we're not sure of the title...?

[rainy-takako.livejournal.com]

Stuff I've started on:
Lithuania and Poland: While you were gone
http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/rpi.htm

England caught a cold
http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/rkgk13.htm

Also, I'm being useless and working on some of the Blog Collections. http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/nikkimanga3.htm

Ed; I also decided I can't pass up the Valentine's Day strips too.

All right, added!

Permission to translate Hetalia into Spanish

[raedan.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for translating Hetalia!!!! I have a request for all of you here who are working on the translations, I was wondering if I could have your permission to make a Spanish version of all hetalia's webcomic using your work. So, please could I have your permission? I really want to see Hetalia in Spanish, that's all.
Well, thank you again for your work!!!
bye

Re: Permission to translate Hetalia into Spanish

[rainy-takako.livejournal.com]

I'm fine with Spanish translations of any strips I've done as long as you credit rainy_takako with the English translation.

[picnicbird.livejournal.com]

Like rainy_takako, I was dabbling around in the blog collections -- was considering going from most recent (this one (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/nikkimanga10.html)) to the oldest. (I don't think I should claim that whole chunk of blog collections, though, since it was just a vague goal, so...)

I also have the first page of the Sealand introduction done. :D

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Okay, cool, added!

Though I have to ask if possible, I'd like to do the most current blog entry that has the Teutonic Knights and Lithuania+Poland? It's in continuation of the Swedish-Polish Wars that I have translated/uploaded.

[polandlithuania.livejournal.com]

DON'T FORGET TO CREDIT FANARTISTS

Actually, aren't there fanartists who prefer that they not be credited? So that if their embarrassing slashy art does, unfortunately, get widely publicized, even though they clearly prohibit that on their sites, at least it would be harder to track it back to them? I think someone like this was protesting on 4chan a while ago.

Personally, I think there should be a rule to at least friendslock all posts that contain someone else's fanart, if you're going to make them at all.

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Well, as a default rule, all fanartists should be credited unless they state otherwise. And most, if not all fanartists have a small disclaimer that says to not reproduce, distribute, or alter their fanart without permission, so in a sense we are already really breaking their side of the trust/netiquette. Plus, in my experience, the fanartists would prefer that they do get credited if you use their fanart in an icon.

So it's better to give them credit where its due rather than risking the Japanese people thinking right off the bat "Oh wow they take and they don't even credit, how rude."

[konkira.livejournal.com]

Just mentioning that westoestlich has translated the latest comic strip Chibi Prussia and Hungary (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/rih3.html) and I've done my thing and sent it back for proofing - it should be posted soon. Might even be posted before I mention it here, but just in case anyone was thinking of doing it - NO NEED XD!

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Aaah, sorry for the late reply, but I guess since it's up, it's okay to not update? XD; *lazy*

[konbini.livejournal.com]

konbini. Been digging through the strips, and I'd like to do this strip about England and Japan (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/n_t.htm) (The Lonely Japanese-English Alliance) if no one has done it yet. I've checked the the tags and I don't remember seeing it there. Then again, I have horrible eyesight and memory. Claiming this one (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/o_st.htm) (Australia and Chibisuke) and this one (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/mz.htm) (Holy Roman Empire Playing In The River), too. XD

[murasaki-seiko.livejournal.com]

Hope I'm doing this right. ^^;; I didn't see these ones done anywhere or on the list, so I'm guessing they're fine?

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Okay, added^^

[cavechan.livejournal.com]

Hey, just want to let everyone know that I am an experienced editor and don't mind editing images for translators who aren't experienced editing themselves. I do have other projects I do, but some here or there isn't a problem. ^^ Feel free to PM me or send me an email hkiselica at gmail dot com. (Or if you'd like, I can always give pointers for good editing!)

[abelforthe.livejournal.com]

My eyes are not effective against Himaruya's tiny kanjis so...

Translating The Summary of the Austrian Succession War for more background information on the scanlations done about it. I'll translate the tiny comics in the page too.

I guess I'll be claiming/at least trying to translate the text-based pages. I'm sure some people would love to read those too:

France nii-chan and that person: http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/rkgk.htm
The Japanese trait America discovered: http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/amenihon.htm
Posters of Each Country: http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/pst.htm

Ack, the Succession War link: http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/ost2.htm

I've started on England and Japanese ghost folklore (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/zsk.htm). :)

Claiming the following:

"Why Americans love the springtime." (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/tsks.html)
Austria/Italy (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/bldesuyo.htm)
Let's go take a look at Estonia (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/est.htm)

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Added, and your finished list cleared to prevent clogging!^^

[panjapanja.livejournal.com]

hello~

In a class I am currently taking, I am required to scanlate a book of my choice, so I have chosen to do the hetalia publication. I will try to finish the whole thing, but don't know how far I will get.

So after I finish I will compare what I have finished to what others have posted from the website and fill in the gaps~ (will post in december probably~)

my only problem is that though I have the book I have no scanner, so I will maybe post to request a kind soul to scan the pages that aren't on the website for me or it will have to be text-only translation OTL

I'll do my best to create something high quality~ (for both the sake of fans and my class grade hahaa;;)

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Okay. Just make sure that you don't post the ones that have already been posted/claimed, since some of them are included in the website as well as the book.

One of those would include the heavily-edited Chibitalia strip, as well as the War for Austria's Succession.

If possible, can you please make a list of what is in the book? I lent my copy out and have yet to get it back...

[sapphirus.livejournal.com]

I'll be slower than anyone else (probably), but I think I'll claim Together with Grandpa Rome (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/rome.html).

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Okay, added!

[paperonigiri.livejournal.com]

I've already started on this: http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/btmn4.jpg !
I...I hope that's okay 8D;

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

No one has claimed it, so I'm pretty sure it's all right.

[nisecal.livejournal.com]

Um! I wanted to read about Sealand!
And then I decided I should share the Sealand love!
( http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/ea.html )

But, I spy with my little eye that picnicbird has the first part done already (but it's not on the list!)
(--> http://community.livejournal.com/hetalia/62071.html?thread=1362551#t1362551 )

Can I claim it anyway?

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Hmm, I'm not sure if that means picnicbird has claimed all of them or not, but the best way to find out might be to just PM or LJ-comment her?

[rainy-takako.livejournal.com]

Snagging this since it just came out.

Who's been drawing these pictures? (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/art.html)

Aaaaaand I'm nearly ready to post the Xmas stuff, whee!

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

Waah, sorry. Man, you're so fast. Claiming and then posting, it's hard for me to keep up OAO

[konkira.livejournal.com]

She'll probably drop in to claim it herself, but until then, I know that nisecal is currently working on the latest Iceland & Sealand comic (http://www.geocities.jp/himaruya/sld.html).

[nisecal.livejournal.com]

o yes thx XD

About Main Chapter 4

[absolutetoshman.livejournal.com]

I finished scanlating Main Chapter 4.
But user name,equivalent_t, have already claimed to
scanlate this chapter on 2008-08-27.
Unless I overlook, exactly there is not this chapter in this site.
Did he give up scanlating? Does anyone know his progress?
But,if there is this chapter, I'm really sorry for
bothering you.
(I use English as second language. So my English may be odd to you.)

Re: About Main Chapter 4

[youkofujima.livejournal.com]

About this, you might want to contact equivalent_t about it. For all we know, it could be finished and in the editing process, or being worked on.

[nisecal.livejournal.com]
