French Low quality translator

[okinawa]

Okay I talked to him, he is a good translator, but Corion only paid him like 20$ so he did it quick, the quality is not perfect. But he will work harder next time

check the comments, everyone said he makes low quality translation

Does it look google translated?
Also how did he steal your work? Seems like he posted it first.
However, if you did not have reserved spot for the translation first, i do not see how he could steal your work at all apart from just having bad quality translation.

As far as the spreadsheet is concern, macdeb listed first.

But low quality translating is not right as it will be unfair to other translators that putting up some effort. I suggest to have another French here or who can understand the language if the translation is really poor.

I remember one of the user here who are in same country with me who did poor language translation and eventually got red tag by the DT.

There was someone recently who translated in a lot of different languages, proving he didn't speak any of them at all. He got a red tag for sure. It's dishonest.

Looking at sheet, seems like macdeb posted first. But translation job with poor quality must be rejected since it delivers poor quality or incomplete information to th community.

I think eventually his work should be rejected and yours should be accepted. I have pmed Jamal about the same since he is looking over translations.

Give me plausible proof that it is translated via some automated tool and I will leave a negative rating.

He's a good translator his work verified by tokenmarket team..  And he locked the thread many days ago after my request.  So he did not stolen your translations.

I'm French. I'd say there is some work put into it, pure google translate would be way worse. But it's certainly not great.

[JohnUser]

Its not a google translate, only a poor quality translation, but as the dev said its not the official translation and he did it two times.

I got a lot of feedbacks that this is a poorly translated site! Please remove it, it is not official Corion allowed topic!

This doesn't deserve a red trust, only a warning.

[Lauda]

This doesn't deserve a red trust, only a warning.

Disagreed. You should not be:
1) Using any kind of automated translation tools to claim bounties.
2) Attempt to claim bounties in languages which you do not have an adequate mastery of.

Hello,

To defend myself : I agree that the thread you are mentionning is of poor quality.
However, I didn't use Google Translate for it. I did it quite quickly, because I didn't really believe
in the project, and it was my first translation. Maybe I shouldn't have reserved the translation for this thread.

Now I only translate whitepapers for projects that I believe in. I translated whitepapers which were accepted, for example : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B71QNBG_R1kCU1RpRzZocDh5Y00/view
I worked with jamalaezaz, and you can ask him, my translations were always good.

I hope you will believe me and that I can continue working without any problem.
I have several translations reserved right now, and need to have a positive trust rating to keep going.

[marcdeb]

Here is a proof that that translation was reserved to me (Slack):

marcdeb [6:35 PM]
Hello Zoltan !


[6:35]
I would like to reserve French translation :slightly_smiling_face:


[6:36]
Also, is there a bounty for the whitepaper translation ?


corionteam [6:40 PM]
Hi, yes, translate of the bitcointalk topic and setting up the french bitcointalk thread worth 50 Corions, and translation of the whitepaper is 100 Corions.


marcdeb [6:40 PM]
Cool !


[6:40]
Can I reserve it ?


corionteam
[6:41 PM]
Yes, its yours, but you can have the coins only when we will be online, around end of next week!

How a "brand new" could know how are working bounties for his very first message?

French translation reserved

How did you join the monacocard bounty campaign when the ICO closed the same day as your first message (june 18th)?
Why can't we find your username in none of the spreadsheets of that campaign?

Received !

You are obviously a multi-account.

[marcdeb]

Everybody is reserving languages in bounty threads, it's easy to see this and to do the same.
I wrote this message after having reserved.

In fact I reserved by contacting the team directly on Slack.

Check this spreadsheet : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gGK92Mhbz-JnRnk4-B8Rlk-htVxuak97d--0kH0ZDPU/edit#gid=154286656
You can see that my name is in it.

[marcdeb]

It's my only account. I knew Bitcointalk before but didn't have an account.
I created one when I discovered bounty programs (1 month ago).
I reserved the whitepaper on June 15th by talking to Jamal on Slack (it was saying Bounty Manager).

[fr4nkthetank]

Its sad, but most people just do google translate and thats it, maybe proof read a bit.  The coin devs should not just give it to the first who "reserves" it, they should see reputation or something.  if they get a bad translation its kinda their own fault too, they should not pay.

[marcdeb]

It's sad for sure.
For my part, I've never used Google Translate.
If it's only a matter of quality, it's up to the team behind the ICO to accept it or not.
That's why I don't see why I should be punished.

[Lauda]

If people native to this language have trouble understanding your translation or just outright state that it is bad, then you do not have the necessary skills to produce a translation in said language. Therefore, you should not be attempting to cheat bounties with low-quality translations (automated or not).

I don't see why I should be punished.

I don't see why you should not. I take it French isn't your native language, and your mastery does not seem to be adequate (according to the statements from others). Why are you translatingtrying to translate into French then?

[marcdeb]

French is my native language. I'm French. You can ask other French people here.

As I said, this CORION thread was a mistake, and it does not represent my translation skills.
