honestly I just wish that there could be some sort of purge and ban of anything that has mangatranslator.ai on it, but I cant imagine there's much in the way of automating that moderation

Would it be possible to have the tag automatically added if the title contains [MTL], instead of needing to individually add and upvote the tag on each work manually?

If a gallery has [DNTA] at the end of its title, it has been machine translated by that translation group. Find and tag!

This is one tag I look forward to blacklist. I don't even do it on repulsive tags like scat and guro because the reaction on the comment section is funny.

Thanks for adding this tag!

Yessss, finally I can blacklist these "translations." Thank you

Great adjustments Ranchdong! @Sarod: What about the people who live there already lol

Banish all MTL posters into the Philippines. I wanna blacklist them and hopefully never see them again.

The AI translations are a vile disease upon this rich soil. I like having 'mtl' as a tag. The suggested description by admin "The translation was produced primarily by machine translation rather than by a human hand, typically with little or no editing." is great.

An MTL tag is very needed right now since these mtl translations have gotten so large in volume. I think same way people can tag and blacklist "bad grammar" we should be able to do the same with AI translations.

This tag is need. It is here for AI translation and sloppy works where ppl just use google and don't do proofreading. I can name a tons of AI translation that usually live under scanmark tag. Please approve the tag. I believe we do need it.

There only needs to be a single tag for bad translations. You don't know if the translator just sucks, was in a hurry, used MTL full or partially. And in the end the how doesn't really matter.

Sure i can do the full written out text at apply time

I feel like "rough translation" is mainly for low quality human-made translations So "machine translation" tag makes sense, also because it's fully spelled out like "rough translation" is so it's consistent and easy to understand Having it as "MTL" or "mtl" is not as good because yes it's understandable to certain people but it's not as obvious what it means to everyone else. Same reason the "netorare" tag is spelled out instead of being "ntr". Let's be consistent

If you guys would prefer to use that fine with me :)

It's already covered with the "rough translation" no ?

I'd prefer the word [machine translated text] though, much clearer than mtl.

Thinking about this for the description thoughts?: The translation was produced primarily by machine translation rather than by a human hand, typically with little or no editing.

Obligatory First ;)
