Fair or better understanding in English/Chinese Buddhism terms
Note: welcome anyone that is willing to learn. No previous experience is required.

Proofreader: Provide quality assurance on the final draft.

As you can see, the system is setup in such way that everyone is a key player in the translation procedure, yet the workload is distributed and shared. Prior to publishing any work, a paper is reviewed by at least 3 members(
Translator/Editor/Proofreader) so we can eliminate possible mistakes and improve the accuracy. With the team effort, more of our beloved Guru's teachings can be learned!
