Gundam Unicorn

Just a thought, but I think you should check with Teh_Ping first as to whether or not << >> should be used for terminology.

I think you should check as Teh_Ping used double brackets throughout the entire translation of Volume 2. Whereas in Volume 1 he used other methods, e.g. ‘Industrial 7’ or italics, etc. So I think this means that he would prefer for double brackets to be used in the translation since they were used exclusively for denoting terminology in Volume 2 and they were used from the start of Volume 2's translation.

See the edit history for Gundam Unicorn Volume 2 Chapter 2 on 04:07, 27 April 2012 where Teh_Ping used ‘’ around the name Garencieres. In his following translations, from 16:11, 29 April 2012 onward, double brackets are used instead of ‘’. Also, I think Teh_Ping prefers it when editors don't change his translation style too much and the double brackets seem to be a part of his style for Unicorn.

Really, in the end I suppose this is a minor issue, and you are the editor for Unicorn so it's your decision as to whether you want to check this issue about the double brackets with Teh_Ping. I'm really sorry to bother you about this issue again but I think really think you should check with Teh_Ping first as to whether or not double brackets should be used for terminology in Unicorn.

You're probably right, and I'll ask him before my next edit goes in.TheWonko 09:29, 11 June 2012 (CDT)

Alright good to know and thanks for replying so quickly. Oh and I'm sorry for making that such a long message. Anyway keep up the good work on editing :)

Okay, for << >>, it's for terminology. For conversations in places that couldn't be seen or radio, the text gave it as brackets. The ‘’ was supposed to be '' for italics purpose, only for thought processes. (Helps to denote the change in tenses as well). I do try to keep it like the text, but the '' for thoughts are something I added.--Teh Ping 04:36, 17 June 2012 (CDT)

Will require you to change the tenses for non-dialogue to past tenses. Thanks in advance.--Teh Ping 08:17, 20 July 2012 (CDT)
