Translator

[Fincalian]

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere already, I searched around but couldn't find what I was looking for.

I was wondering if there are any specific policies on listing the translator of a book. I've noticed that a number of Yoshimoto Banana's works don't have a translator listed, and am eager to add the translator, but am not sure how.

Thanks for any help!

The translator can be added in the secondary author position with the role of Translator.

Hi!
Found out recently that two of the books I've translated were listed on Goodreads, since then I became a member to try to include other published books I've translated in the list, but I haven't been able to do so. How can I add the translator to the portuguese editions?
Thank you.

[Paula]

You need to be added to the secondary author position, if you provide links to the books some one will add you

[Irene]

OK, are the ISBN enough?

[Paula]

Yep

[Irene]

Thanks! Here goes (these editions are already on Goodreads, but the translator is not listed):

Por Trás do Silêncio (original title: The Weight of Silence)
ISBN: 9789720045485

Amor e Chocolate (original title: The Chocolate Run)
ISBN: 9789720041128

Oh, and the translator is Irene Ramalho, of course.
I'm new here, sorry for any inconveniences.

Sorry to inconvenience you again, but could you add me, as the translator, to the book

O Outro Amor da Vida Dele, by Dorothy Koomson
Porto Editora
ISBN:978-972-0-04344-3

And also, how can I link my translations to the original titles in older books?

Thank you :)

Number 11 is done.

As far as linking books, you can copy the url into your post here for both the older book and your translation, and a librarian can combine them and/or add you as translator as needed.

Example:

Thank you :)

I just noticed that books that weren't linked last time I saw are linked now, so that one is taken care of.

Can you please add me as the translator to this book?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

It's the last one I've translated, so I won't bother the librarians again any time soon...

[vicki_girl]

Got #13.

[Irene]

OMG you are so fast!!!

I've tried to create a book I translated and was just published this Monday the 8th April. Then I saw it's already created. Can you add me as Translator? The book is:

A Praia das Pétalas de Rosa
isbn13 978-972-0-04447-1

Thanks :)
What can I do to eliminate the book I created, it's basically a double of this one with the added info of the translator.

I'm such a klutz

[Irene]

Ignore the last question please, I've asked librarians to eliminate the duplicate on the appropriate thread.

Next time I'll check first and ask to be added as translator before trying to do anything myself.

[Irene]

I see I'm already added. Thanks :)
