===Updates===

Fixed the broken links of the short-shorts, I checked on the broken links yesterday, they’re fixed. please be careful because there is an error with the links and they're using a special type of "ː" in them. To fix it to the normal symbol we must create new pages and I don't want to do that, I don't want to create so many pages in the system we will not use later.[[User:RedGlassesGirl|RedGlassesGirl]] ([[User talk:RedGlassesGirl|talk]]) 11:46, 30 March 2015 (CDT)

I changed the ː's to :'s to be uniform... and it seems I've redlinked some links in the process. OTL I wanted to change the pages that were linked to have : in their titles/URLs rather than ː so they'd work but it seems there's no way of editing the page's title...? orz orz orz It seems I also redlinked Keigo Night because the URL for that was spelled Kiego... could the page creator fix these errors/rename the pages somehow? :'D --[[User:Ixtli|Ixtli]]

Hello, I'm updating this page so we can use it to chat about the project. 
For the ones who don't know me, I'm the translator/editor of the spanish version of the novels, but I've been also helping with the english version since December as editor/corrector. I'm not an english native speaker, and my skills are limited, I hope you can understand this and be patient with me. I took the project manager position in english too because I've been editing the page, managing the names and terminology and kind of advising some of the translators like Neko (drama CDs) and Alaxxis Sade (novels 9, 10 and side story) since some time ago. I've also discussed a lot of things with them, but I don't know who are the rest of the active translators here, I would like to keep in contact with you. If it's easiest for you, we can also write by email.

You'll see I updated the whole main page, I improved the novel list with the same style I designed for the spanish version, I added a detailed table with the list of novels, date of publishing and even the ISBN for the ones who are interested in buying them, and I also added the drama CD list. Regarding the drama CDs, I already contacted the staff of Baka Tsuki and they allowed me to host the translations here, even a couple of images if they are related to the novels. There are drama CDs written by Takabayashi, and other ones written by the animation staff, if possible I'll add notes about it. Neko, the translator of the drama CDs is unable to upload them here, so I'll be hosting everything, she sent me not only text files but also the audios, I'm still researching where to host them. If you want to contact with me privately or do you have a tumblr account I'm very active there: http://redglassesgirl-maruma.tumblr.com/ If you send me personal informatio in a message in tumblr like your email, I'll not post it public.

I'm doing my best to help the project in english, but due to my limited skills with the laguage I'll really apreciate all the help I can get to correct my bad writing in the main page or the other sections. Again, thanks for being patient with me ^^u

Please also check the [[MA_Series:Names_and_Terminology_Guideline | Terminology and Guideline]] that I've been updating it recently. We discussed a lot of names and things with Neko and Alaxxis Sade, and we're still cheking some of them, but the list is pretty much done. Please don´t change anything without discussing it previously or letting me know, I'll be adding some notes regarding names and some words to explain in what was based our desicion and why we choose that particular spelling for them, etc. The idea is to be consistent, to avoid using different names from one translation to another. 

I hope to hear from you soon, and thanks for contribute to this great series!! Please add your post on top of the last one posted. --[[User:RedGlassesGirl|RedGlassesGirl]] ([[User talk:RedGlassesGirl|talk]]) 10:22, 12 February 2015 (CST)
