Table:Chinese Infosphere - coming up
Discussion
Yeah; I know, Chinese? I dunno Chinese, and I bet none of you do. But the people over at flyine.net would really appreciate a Chinese version of the Infosphere. To explain it plainly, Flyine is a Chinese science-fiction fan site, which also have a large Futurama 'sub'-community, whom makes an effort of translating the episodes into Chinese subtitles as well translating Infosphere articles into Chinese as well.
When I saw that, I got the impression that perhaps we should offer them a place here, so they could more easily contribute to their Chinese brethren. And remember, Futurama can still be fun with subtitles.
Oh, one more thing; since I am pretty busy for the time being, I won't be setting up zh.infosphere.org until around Monday. Just a heads up. --SvipTalk 13:48, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- No, I can't speak Chinese. But I know a good number of Japanese Kanji, so I might be able to decipher at least the gist of what they're saying. :D --Buddy 17:26, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, just English for me, and some American, beside that a handful of words in other languages that can't form useful sentences. I guess we'll need a new Sysop for zh if it grows large. - Quolnok 00:32, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

And so, the Chinese Infosphere is up; hopefully, their members will begin editing soon enough. I suspect their first contributions will take form in the form of close to direct translations. --SvipTalk 12:39, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
