    CatatoPatch is looking for CN to EN translators.

    Chapter Length: 2.7-3.3k characters.

    Rate: Depends on QUALITY/terms. Payment is calculated per chapter. Email for more details. Essentially, if an additional editor has to be assigned to you, don't expect as much as someone who can finish the work solo.

    Required Rate: Roughly 4 per week. Negotiable depending on the requirements below.

    Additional Requirements: Must be able to deliver on schedule. Work is assigned as a bloc of chapters. Decent English is expected and affects your pay. Accuracy is critical. Must be able to work on chapters that aren't in running order.

    A one page test will be issued via Google Docs. Existing translators will be given preferential treatment.

    Payment Method: Paypal or bank transfer (depending on country). Email for more details.

    Contact CatatoPatch via email: [email protected] or Discord (catatopatch #6109). Pms won't be checked often so do not pm me for a response.

    Please note: you are required to at least complete one week's worth of work assignments. If you aren't able to even finish the first week, please do not apply because I do not have the time to entertain your whims.

    Hypothetically speaking, will there be a cheat sheet for the standardisation of proper nouns or does the editing also entail a lot of googling for that purpose?
