But online translators are not good.
They don't translate things quite good.
We're an English-speaking board. The end.

Not to mention that Google Translate is doing not too bad to translate into English. Provided that the poster have mastered their own language and avoid colloquialismes and other weird idioms. And re-checks the result that Google gives as there are mistakes that even a non-native can recognize.

For the record, and despite my bilingualism, this entire post was translated from French (another Romance language) by Google. Only two obvious mistakes were changed by myself. Not bad for an automatic translator, eh?  ;)

...English and Spanish are the 2 most spoken languages in the world.
Actually, the 2 most commonly spoken languages in the world are English and Chinese. (This is coming from someone who is currently in Mandarin 3)

Spanish, on the other hand, is the 4th most spoken language in the world.

Anyways, I never knew we were allowed to post translations. Do the translations have to be perfect? I was planning on posting a Chinese translation of the rules, but I'm only in Mandarin 3, so my translations might not be as good.

I said Spanish and English because Spanish is the most spoken language of America (only a few countries excluded).
Most part of the American population speaks Spanish.
The other common language being English (specially Canada and U.S.A.)
Before someone attacks me:
No, I won't say/accept the term "American" to refer exclusively to people or things from the United States.
America is a continent and deal with it.
I'm an American, but not necessarily from the U.S.

United States =/= The World.
I don't take requests.

English may be my second language, but if a admin says the end... it means the end. We have to deal with it and move on. Also, those should make more effort and learn English via translating, cuz its an important language.

Drop the topic, as its now spam.

Good? Okay? Done.

Or maybe you could contact someone who's fluent in both English and Spanish.
I could help although i cant consider myself so good at English, but @Alejandro you could also ask Gamidame_K or Flygon, because i think they`re more fluent at English than me, and we`re  from the same country...i think :v

That's correct. However, you did say that English and Spanish were the most spoken languages in the world.

I still didn't have my question answered yet. Do we need perfect translating skills, or is it just recommended?

"Perfect translation skills" isn't really a thing that exists. So the more skillful the better.

However, China currently ranks 70th (0.02%) in terms of visits on this website. I don't think a Mandarin translation of the rules will be necessary.

Spanish translation is okay since we do have a bunch of traffic and users from Mexico and other central/south America countries.
(And maybe Japanese. Maybe.)

I loved how before with Brawl Vault, you could right-click on the numbers representing the pages to go through, and click "Open in a new tab", so I was wondering if you could bring that functionality back or not.

That still works for me.
