User:Seelentau

Hi, my name is Seelentau, but you can call me Tau. From November to March, I'll be doing an internship abroad, so don't expect too much activity from my side during that time.

I'm a German International Technical Communication and Translation student working for a couple of wikis and forums such as the Naruto wikia, where I'm the stand-in Japanese translator following my predecessor's leaving. In late October 2014, I also took on the position of Narutopedia's tenth sysop.

While I'm not actively translating any longer, I'm still available for questions or to give my opinion on other's translations. However, please bear in mind that my skills are nowhere close to those of an actual student of the Japanese language. I also won't be doing translations on whole pages or articles.

For my translation work, I acquired every Japanese volume as well as around half of the chapters in their WSJ versions. I also own all Japanese databooks and fanbooks as well as other supplementary material. If you need something from those, ask away.

You can also find me on MyAnimeList, Naruto Forums and reddit. I also tweet (in German) about Naruto on Twitter @Narutopedia_eu.

To-Do list:
 * Remove translation template from intros, because it unnecessarily lengthen's them. Most nicknames can be found in the infobox at the same height of the intro anyway.
 * Remove bolded words from texts except for the article title in intros. Based on WP MoS.
 * Shorten loooong links. For the same reason we don't link every possible article.
 * Signatures have to contain (at least) the username, a link to the user page and talk page and not more than one picture. They have to be of adequate size.
 * Create separate articles for movie novels.
