Guidelines

When using the imageboards:

Project threads are for project contributions. Please use the #general channel for general talk and the Request thread to ask for raws.
Please state in the thread if you intend to work on something or can't work on something anymore.
The translator and editor of a multiple-chapter series have the privilege to work on any subsequent chapters if they want to. Please check to make sure no one is already working on it.

Raws

Yuri only, or relevant titles that appeal to many yuri fans.
Only Raw provider who paid for the Raw themselves will be given credits.
If it's possible, please scan monochrome pages in grayscale and at 300dpi.
Resolution larger than 2000px is preferred, so that editors can perform rotation/cropping and still release edited page at high resolution.

Translation

Post your translation by any method that you prefer, most translators save their work in a *.TXT file and upload directly on board.
Any spelling variant of English is okay, as long as it’s consistent in the same series.
Translate as close to original Japanese meaning as possible.
Translate SFX too when you can, or at least type them out. You can look up SFX translation in The JADED Network or Nihongo Resources.
All names should be romanized according to Hepburn rule, unless it's a non-Japanese name.
Keep name order just as how they appeared in the material. Generally that would be surname - given name for Asian names, and vice versa for Western names.
Japanese name suffix is optional, but keeping them is preferred.

Editing

If you're inexperienced or need tips, check out Editing Tutorial and Rikai's editing tips: http://scanlationnn.tumblr.com/. You can also ask for guidance in the thread you're working on, or go to the Dynasty Scans Discord’s #scanlation channel to consult other editors. You maybe find the scanlation tools site helpful. Keep in mind:

Use a program that has a layers feature such as Photoshop, always save and keep *.PSD files until a project is archived.
Vertical resolution is to be reduced to 2000px unless Raws are smaller, never enlarge an image.
Cleanliness: pages are rotated to be straight, clean edges, dust-free, black areas are leveled to black, white areas to white, avoid over-leveling. Programs like waifu2x can be used to remove JPEG artifacts.
Use different fonts for dialogue, thoughts and narration. An example combination is Wild Words for dialogue, bold-italic Wild Words for yelling, augie for handwritten text, Chinacat for narration, Zud Juice for thoughts. But you can be creative as well.

SFX: either replace the SFX entirely, or arrange the translated SFX next to the original Japanese ones (font close to the original Japanese font). See the images to the right.

Save monochrome pages (black/white, or blue/white, or red/white, etc.) as PNG-8. In Photoshop, this is File → Save for Web → choose "PNG-8", "Adaptive", "Diffusion", type in 32 for "Colors", "Dithers" 100%.

Make a credits page. Include the name of the manga and artist, everyone who was involved in the scanlation process, and a link to yuri-project.net. Note that if the Raws came from the general internet (unknown source), there's no need to mention the Raws source.

Post the edited pages after you're done, in some way that others can download. And:

Always include the credits page, even if it's only for QC.
Always add "in QC" to the folder name.

Quality Control

Main article: Quality Control

QC is a broad process that usually involve several people. When you do this, it is best to look at the edited version alongside the translation text file and Raws. Each QCer can choose to look at some or all of the following aspects:

Translation: meaning accuracy, text is in the right bubbles, SFX translated.
English: proper grammar, no typos, normal punctuation, good readability and flow.
Editing: proper resolution, proper file type, cleaned properly, consistent font choice, SFX has good redraw, text fits the bubble and properly centered (both vertically and horizontally), no missing text or missing SFX.

QCers can step in to help with partial SFX editing/typesetting if the primary editor can't do that. After the editor posted the first edited version, the project will remain in QC for at least 5 days.

Release

After the QC period is over, if no more complaints are brought up and all requirements are met, the work can be released. Upload the project to Dynasty Scans and Mangadex, and announce closure in the project thread.
