EPTPersonally I like it the way it is but apparently some spoiled TL brats think otherwise.

Also, having it there allows the korean readers to read both (which we have several of here) as well as pick up any mistakes. | ||

but i voted for "as long as there's interviews i'm happy" because it's true  if it was easier to exclude the korean or if it was easier to do the whole thing at once i don't care, whatever the translators prefer although i suspect that korean then english sections are in fact easier | ||

I voted for english-only though... Edit: English only should sum up with korean then english, because it's very close, you just need to scroll down a bit if you have it in korean too. This way the votes split up. If there was no "english only" option, the "first whole korean then whole english" would be ahead by a mile. | ||

That said, if it isn't any additional hassle to change things and they want to just find the best way to do things, I think putting the whole interview in English without any Korean is the best way. If people can understand Korean, then they wouldn't need to read the translations in the first place. The people who need translations get nothing from having any Korean included, and it just takes time to add that additional text. In my opinion, the best way to do the translations for both the translators and the readers is to just post the interview entirely in English with a link to the original interview. This way people who can read Korean can just click the link, the other readers can have a neater presentation of the only text they can understand, and the translators can save themselves some time by only posting translations and a link. | ||

1. It takes me no more than 5 minutes to read after match interviews in FiFo. 2. I have no problem with people not reading my interview translation, for my intentional omission of progamers' alias. Just the same, I have no problem with people disagreeing with my personal belief that progamers should not be called by their alias simply out of convenience, but by their real names. | ||

the progamer names is a bit of an inconvenience, seems like you force us to adapt to a certain culture. either way this is not a big deal, it is useful to learn these stuff anyway. In my opinion, the best way to do the translations for both the translators and the readers is to just post the interview entirely in English with a link to the original interview. This way people who can read Korean can just click the link, the other readers can have a neater presentation of the only text they can understand, and the translators can save themselves some time by only posting translations and a link. this is purely a description of my preferences, of course any interviews at all is great and the effort is always appreciated greatly. | ||

However, when translating a large article (not a short, post-game interview like the ones we've been seeing), the Korean just makes it way too long. As long as the English translation is done very well, then there should be no problem with omitting the Korean, since it only gets in the way and makes the long article very cluttered. | ||

even if this doesn't apply to you, why choose "english only"? is it so hard to skip a few lines that you'd rather mess it up for the rest of us? | ||

I don't think the admins will take the last one since a lot of ppl want to have korean letters though since it doesn't matter so much... It's all up to them and i'd be glad if they can make exceptions because the majority isn't always right. Since it's a site based to what the koreans are doing nowadays, I don't see any reasons to not put a korean interview. Hell that'd be even stupider to remove it. I think the majority that doesn't want korean interview are the news ones to the site. Just get them used to tl.net and it'll be all fine. | ||
