Translations?

Can you please leave the translations unaltered, we have a team of staff who know what their doing and the translations are already accurate as is. --Vaati The Wind Demon (talk) 03:40, 11 January 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hey there. I just want to say a few things to further help you understand, most of your changes seem to be altering the phrasing of the translation so that it's "X of Y" in stead of "X (Adjective) Y (Noun)". In most cases, both actually work, but it's better to default to the translation that best fits the US English localization. In the case of, say, the Earth Temple, the best translation would be "Earth Temple" rather than "Temple of Earth".
Also, you may be inclined to write "Same as English" instead of a translation if the names mean the same thing. That's the preferred method anyway. Thanks for your time, and happy editing! :) - TonyT S C 03:52, 11 January 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
