おおっと、返事ありがとうございます。
peppyさん、日本語上手ですねー。

えっと、編集のことなんですが、
今年はアルバイトを探したり、就職の進路を考えたりすることに集中したいので、
少なくとも今年の上半期は、osu!に関わることは無いと思います。

修正したいところも今のところないですし。

もしやるなら、他の方がFAQに掲載された僕の文章を元に、弄って、別のものに変えても構いません。
その場合は、こちらのサイトから公式のFAQへリンクさせて頂きます。

これからも影ながら応援させていただきます、がんばってください！

Wow, so few Chinese replies? It's necessary to translate FAQ since there are a lot of Chinese players.

I would like to help abalee, so *hand up* ^^

I can help with the Chinese part, too.
Do you need one more helper?
By the way, the translation should be in simplified Chinese or traditional Chinese? (I'm in Taiwan.)

Probably doesn't matter, as we can just run it through a parser to switch between traditional and simplified.

Yeah, I would be glad to help in the Brazilian Portuguese translation, too. I'll make sure people don't go overboard with all those mechanical-looking translations, aswell as make sure the FAQ remains as smooth, consistent and readable as the English one. Plus, yes, we actually have a lot of (somewhat troublesome) brazilian players, so making a portuguese FAQ is a great idea. Thanks in before!

I've started work on Section (5) - Editing. Translating to Japanese.

I'm really hoping to increase the quality maps that come from the Japanese osu! community (which is recently starting to increase slightly in numbers). It seems a number of Japanese users want to map, but don't quite understand the system or rules.. :?

So far, I've translated the Table of contents (目次) from the English FAQ, and I hope to completely translate section (5) of the FAQ involving the editing of beatmaps.

I went right ahead and submitted my table of contents.

Since the items are *very* terminology heavy (Beatmaps, Hitcircles, Spinners) I mainly re-wrote these as katakana. If you have any official translations you wish to be used for these game items, feel free to edit these terms and tell me what to use. I will keep these translations consistent throughout the rest of the translation.

Read the FAQ about writing up the FAQ, for the love of god. You don't need to "write" a table of contents.

Also if you understand how it's done and have soe time can you fix up what yamada has written too to follow the correct format? (or anyone else that has some time, really).

I fixed the Japanese FAQ. I also PM'd yamada with instructions about uploading FAQ pages. Hopefully the Japanese I write doesn't sound too awkward. :oops:

Hey, I can help to translate the FAQ into Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian).
Well... thought KcLKcL, Vieroz, kesadisan, -SiN-, and VanMoNky have joined the translation team,
I think it would be best if I join the crew (the more the merrier, right? That way, we can finish it quickly),
since I haven't found any FAQ in Bahasa Indonesia yet (I wonder how the progress goes).

So... peppy, for the sake of osu! grant me the power (access) to translate the FAQ.
Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance!

p.s. Don't worry about my En skill (not to overboard; I can speak in 5 different language).

I have some interests for translating FAQ in finnish, but I am just asking, that how accurate translates must be? From word to word, or just relaxing thought? "It means same thing, but with different words."

The overall message should be the same. Two people reading different translations should be able to discuss with each other in a third, common language the meaning of the entry.

What is the point of closing the topic? The FAQ is constantly expanding, and so are the selection of langauges.

I managed to introduce two of my friends to osu! today, and although quite fascinated by the game they seemed a little disappointed that a Korean version of the FAQ did not exist.

Therefore I suggest/volunteer strongly for the addition of "Korean" to the FAQ.

Are you willing to write it? Because that's what we need in order for there to be one.

Are we, um, getting anywhere with this? With the Korean language I mean?

I could translate the whole thing on Word and present it to peppy before I receive the ok-call to write the FAQ on the site, I wouldn't mind

I just want '한국어' added in one of those languages, that's all.

*한국어 = "Korean" in Korean

You should remind him about translation (if he still has access) or either I can do it (unfortunately not now - my PC is being repaired currently). I'll re-post here when I'll be ready.

Ask any BATs/GMTs(or some channel OPs, I don't know how many they could got that right) if you want some faqs added/modified.
but I hope you could find a person listed upon that could handle that language well. :\
