I know most of us don't even realize that site still gets used, but..

Do we really want to have non english articles up there?

http://md-archives.com/articles/the-history-of-my-beginnings.html

Personally, I understand the desire to post there, but seeing as our ingame or forum language is and stays english, I would assume the same applies to the archives as well.

no, it should be english

Originally new submissions were vetted and new writers had to submit something before given a log on....I dont know if that still happens, it should. I thought the archivists were supposed to manage that site?

Anyhow I agree. It shouldnt be there.

Innocence is dealing with it, I believe she edited and uploaded this from conversations i had.

The article is in Spanish. I guess someone can help him translate his story if needed. (BTW: Someone except me, I lack of time )

Isn't that up to the Archivists to decide?

All posted content on MagicDuel...sites (definitely not the word I was looking for) should be in English, so that the material is readable by everyone. The things written by people should not be something that is meant as some sort of "inside thing" for other language speakers - else I'd start speaking pig latin variants. This is an all-inclusive community, not meant to separate the different language communities.

I guess he have help to translate now.

[quote]if it is in an other language then please have title in same language and before or after the title put the language code in brackets like [ES] ..to make it clear that its in an other language..otherwise, if someone clicks a couple of articles in different languages they will think the entire site is mixed.
