But from wetin me dey see e go also better say all translated topics should in one place so that every body go know say na there all translation they go on than just creating separate topic
I did not just come up with this idea, check other boards and see what I am implying. We do not have a single thread anymore, we now have a board. Translated topics supposed to have their own separate thread on Nigerian board. I hope CryptopreneurBrainboss, igebotz and other reputed members will leave their opinion about this.

It is translated and I also suggest only Pidgin on such thread.

This is not a bad idea, but we must consider the negative consequences. Personally, I don't see any value in those translated posts because they are too long to read and the translation is done word for word, which is incorrect; if you must translate, you must read the entire post and then summarize it in pidgin for native speakers to understand.

Now, if individual threads are created for translated posts believe me, everyone on this board will want to translate every post they see on the English board back to the local board. I'm not saying it's a wrong, but I'm more concerned about the abuse and amount of spam this may bring.

I've already spoken about it with Brainboss and if the community want it that way why not but we should all be ready for what this might cause .

And for those of you translating Pidgin to the thread author on that thread should stop if the author want to write he should use English una dey mumu too much. Snitching for merits Tufiakwa

But from wetin me dey see e go also better say all translated topics should in one place so that every body go know say na there all translation they go on than just creating separate topic, but any how if una say creating separate topic go better then no issues me dey for all and any one them choose we still do because all we want na for this local board mature heavily so that we fit achieve other sub-forum inside here, maybe at anytime we fit readjust wetin see say e no balance for here.
I doubt if people de even look that translation thread self, and if dem no de read am, that means e no get any use for our local board.

I also support d suggestion for making the thread direct instead of posting the translated thread in one single thread in form of reply so that our people for here go de read am.

Na my opinion be that too.

The matter no dey subjective, e no dey based on wetin one person want, wetin Charles-Tim suggest dey very good, the single thread for translated topics been make sense wella when we no get local board, but only local thread, but now wey we get local board if we want make users they follow put mouth for translated topics using pidging language to pass message to others, then we gats dey create new topic for them, the extant single translation thread no they open for discussion because na just one thread, and discussions there no go too make sense.

The translation threads are in a single thread because it to avoid rampant (scatter) posting among users or a single user to avoid spamming. Any who want to make comment that tally with the concept and a topic there can do that.  
That reason na because we been no get local board that time na, wetin we get that time na local thread, so e no get as the translation topics go dey for that thread, e for dey disrupt the discussion for that thread. Now wey we don get local board i think say anybody wey wan translate topic suppose open new thread run am for this local board so the topic go dey open for discussion and other users fit talk put for the matter. If you no know, for this single traslation thread discussions no dey allowed. See am:
Ps: This thread is off discussion; all discussion to done on the official Nigeria (Naija) with reference to this thread. DM for thread to be opened for posting your translation.

We do not have Nigeria local board before, but now we have it. Why translated topics are still on a single thread? I mean this thread: Info-thread: Translation of Useful English topics to Naija languages, pidgin etc

I think it should be translated for people that prefer pigin to be able to read it and also there can still be some discussion with some useful replies.
The thread is only meant for pidgin language and any other language there is canceled. There thread is open for everyone who has a relevant discussion apart from the translated topics.

But what I just think about it is that any translated topics should be strictly about pidgin, English should not be allowed. This can be included to our local board rules if accepted.
Exactly. Pidgin language should be precise in the board rules so that when the rules are pin, everyone will see it.
