Sorry to butt in Jo, but the simple fact is the Japanese here won't get better. A majority of the people here have no idea how to properly utilise Translator apps (including moi), and many of them who may have knowledge, might not be able to be accurate all the time. But that's an acceptable flaw right there—none of us concerned here are considered to be skilled with Japanese in the first place, we're just here, having fun with our hobbies.

What you're doing is good, but ultimately it's a lost cause if you keep at it this way, and you're just wasting your time if you're getting this passionate over something like this. Not everyone can be as skilled as you are when it comes to Japanese, but in whatever way they can, they try.

No doubt, using Google Translate is one step short of sliding ones head under the guillotine—but people still try, you've just gotta acknowledge that and properly aid them; just like the other 3-4 translators on the site. Policing each page so vehemently and sticking stuff in so adamantly is kinda vexing, however, and many users will take it the wrong way—no matter who does it.

That being said, everyone welcomes someone of your calibre around here, and maybe a spike in the number of translators could ease your concerns about the decrepit state of the Japanese in most of our articles; but whatever unease you possess should be channeled through slightly...gentler methods.

Solo out.
