I am not as good at keeping track of things as I use to be so I realized I needed to make a little list here of our progress. This should also help anyone who is interested in translating or editing something.
Finished translations that I need someone to clean and edit the text into. Please don't do these if you don't have really nice skills but feel free to start working if you do. Just send me an email at melorasworld@gmail.com so I can make a note of it here that someone is working on one so it's not getting done twice
- Hyrule Fantasy Children's Book
- I'll try to remember to get these uploaded but otherwise just email me for the files if you want to work on it.
- Translation: historyofhyrule.blogspot.com/2021/05/
- Archival Scans
- Translated by Sergei the Sage, scanned by me but donated from Mases collection (Zelda Dungeon) I need someone who is incrfedibly good at repairing images because I want this to be a top notch job.
