It's pretty annoying to switch to the forum every time you spot a mistake, which is why lots of people including me usually just ignore them. After all, translators/editors don't get notifications from the comment section so reporting mistakes there is kinda useless. I'm pretty sure this would improve overall translation quality by a lot.
Let us report translation mistakes beneath the rate translation quality bar
Similar things have been suggested before, don't know if it's being worked on though :/
I agree

I am a big fan of Zenith Translations "ABC Check" If you have found any mistakes in the translation, please, notify us by selecting that text and pressing Ctrl+Enter.
Zenith's method is very fast and not too obtrusive. Admittedly, I only know it from a reader perspective so I can't speak on how well it works from the translator/editor side.
It also appears to only work on PC (Mac?) since it requires a keyboard :)
Note: Zenith's implementation is https://wordpress.org/plugins/mistape/ so it appears to be a wordpress only feature :(

That's fine, isn't it? This is a website built from scratch so the Qi website designers should be able to imitate the features somehow (I know we ask too much from them sometimes). If this were, for example, a google sites or something then there'd be no hope.
Neverfire7, The only issue is that is needs to be built from scratch, where as the wordpress plugin can be implemented immediately by any wordpress site. It is opensource so there shouldn't be any issues copying the functionality.
checkm8 Yup, but I have faith in the Qi website devs

this is a wonderful suggestion. though.... if it is implemented, the editors would be heavily burdened by the mistakes and lookovers they made [even though it is their job], and they probably would have to dig the previous chapters uploaded, [ i mean, the mistakes accumulated over the past 100 or 200 chaps, is gonna drive any editor crazy] and it may affect the editing of the new chapters[like delaying them] this is just a child like me's point of view who admires, respects and worships those almighty translators and editors who keeps doing their work diligently
JunkieOverThe_Moon Which is why they should come up with a editing system 1 through 5 about the mistakes in a chapter, from smallest mistake to a large mistake in a chapter that we, the readers, are able to choice. However this system is only available for a month after the chapter's come out, then after that period of time the system disappears.
