The typo report could automatically include the surrounding paragraph/sentence for context and the editor could just correct the mistake and hit submit. Make it an extra backend module for the editors/translators or hire a dedicated person.

You could have all the suggestions go through a user critic before the editor sees them, I think the previous idea of a badge/exp/ss would get plenty of people willing to filter through the reports and peer-review them. Just dedicate a part of the site to suggested corrections. People can drift through and use thumbs up/thumbs down to filter the actual reports (have the report highlight the error for ease of use). Even better, replace the exp for reviewing a chapter with this; that would take care of two problems at the same time.

Olivia Many of the early chapters of some novels are rife with typos. Better make a list already.

      XD i just suggested something like this in another topic

      ive always thought it was weird how i get to a chapter and theres 99+ comments but not a single one of them mentions a really obvious mistake like a wrod spelled wrong :P

      if it was being kept simple up/down vote works since they have the coding for it and just need to set it there.

      Pizza and they wont get fixed even if you comment on them. a lot of early chapters, even more if its brought in from another source, are basically ignored so if you bring it up in a comment or topic they dont get fixed.

          Aranwen1 Indeed. I was really happy that HN1F was picked up. That was until I read it. I skipped the chapters which had been translated by the previous translator before being dropped, so I've no clue as to whether they just used those or translated them. After those chapters though, there were a ton of typos & as if that wasn't enough some chapters seemed to be mtld (at least in my opinion).

              CKtalon Any chance of getting some form of this in the works? As previously stated, rewards are not mandatory.

              I have submitted grammar and typo suggestions for free previously and as long as you give an easy route to submit them then I will gladly do so again. Give us a route and make it easy on the editors, that's all I'm asking for. Rewards are a bonus if suitable to the overall design and again are not mandatory.

              Thanks to Neverfire7 for the response!

                  A lot of users are on mobile, so any form of making it easier to suggest edits would be greatly appreciated. I'm not so proactive as to wait until the end of a chapter to recall all typos and awkward phrasing, but if I could do it in line, then I would absolutely contribute.
                  I know I suggested the SS, but since it's not likely to even see a badge for this, how about for the warm fuzzies of knowing that these edits make the chapters more readable for the rest of the users?

                    APassingMe You can always go to the discord channel in #suggestions_bug_feedback and post the chapter and the line that is problematic. (look above this page for the link). It's easier to keep track of issues there than on the forum with the high traffic.

                        That's not ideal for ease of use but still something, I will try to do that for now. Still hoping that something more permanent is implemented! Thanks!

                        Edit: I logged in but it looks like you, CKtalon, are the only translator who is online there. Will that get the attention of the other editors as well or should this be for just your novels?
