If her translations were *that* bad, why were people copying them in the first place?
And if someone does not agree with a translation, the best approach is to write another complete version, instead of pointing out line by line the "misinterpretations" in someone else's work and appear like a "teacher" correcting a "child".

And of course that person from another Russian site copying Tatysite's articles without giving proper credit was probably the final straw.
Just wanted to say that I apprecited katbeidar's translations However it was hard not to have noticed all the things mentioned in the above post....
This is why I come to this site for the news and the discussions
