Machine translations?

Good day. Please refrain from using online translation tools to translate content here, as shown at Special:Diff/26644302. --Min☠︎rax^«¦talk¦» 10:49, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Unblock request granted This blocked user asked to be unblocked, and one or more administrators has reviewed and granted this request. Request reason: reason :I was translating from English to Kannada, and most of the time, there was no change needed. Whenever there was a change, I made the necessary corrections. However, I have now been blocked by the admin for approving machine translations. I did not intentionally make any false translations; if there were any errors, they were purely by mistake. I kindly request you to unblock me, and I assure you that I will be more careful and not repeat any mistakes in the future.Thank you. Unblock reason: Sure, if you agree to be more careful in the future and have learned from your mistakes that landed you a block, I don't see why not. --SHB2000 (t • c) 03:20, 18 May 2024 (UTC) This template should be archived normally.

@Hariprasad Shetty10: Do you agree to not use machine translations in the future? --SHB2000 (t • c) 22:29, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

@SHB2000 I think translation issue is with attention to detail not with machine translation, so requirement not to use machine translation seems unreasonable, and many of Kannada translation are actively checked by kannada community members as seen in diff link posted by Minorax, since @Hariprasad Shetty10 expressed that they will be more careful in future while translating, As a Kannada language community member i don't see any actual reason for barring them from using machine translation since kannada language machine translation are more accurate in my experience. ~aanzx ^✉ _© 02:35, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Okay, cool. I've unblocked them. --SHB2000 (t • c) 03:20, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Also, I just realised that I hadn't properly unblocked you – apologies for that. --SHB2000 (t • c) 00:22, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
