Steem White Paper Greek Translation Part 6 (+ 1248 words)
Repository
Project Details
A White Paper is an authoritative report or guide that informs readers concisely about a complex issue and presents the issuing body's philosophy on the matter. It is meant to help readers understand an issue, solve a problem, or make a decision. Source
In this translation session I continued with the Steem White Paper. The majority of the strings was already translated, so I started reviewing the strings and correct anything that was/is not sitting well. In this session I started encountering untranslated strings, in addition to correcting the already translated ones. The translation level got to 89%
Contribution Specifications
- Translation Overview
Subject to @ruth-girl's proof-reading, this is the third part of the translation, and it brings the White Paper to around ~59% completion. Since there were already translated & approved strings, the percentage is a very rough estimate.
- Languages
The project was translated from English to Greek. I'm a native Greek and because of my job (programmer) English is a "must learn" language.
- In this session
In this session I translated how Steemit uses bandwidth rate-limits instead of transaction fees. It was kinda interesting to learn a few more things in-depth about this system. I also started translating the need for minimum account balance and how it can make the abuse obsolete (in theory at least). It's getting more interesting on each part. If you haven't read the whitepaper with the proper attention it needs, feel free to do it in English (or just wait until I finish the Greek translation :P )
- Word Count
Using my proprietary method of calculating translated words, I estimate that I have translated an extra of 1248 words, to a total of ~6800 words (7235 words translated as Crowdin states on the report, minus a 5% for untranslated words).

Thank you for contributing to the Davinci-Utopian translation project @dimitrisp!
This was your 12th contribution to the project and the 6th part for the Steem White Paper.
As I stated in your first post on the White Paper translation:
After completing the Steem Bluepaper, you have moved to the White Paper, a long and difficult text with complex meanings. Your task is a difficult one and requires concentration in order to provide a correct translation that won’t deviate from the original text.
When you started working on the project some strings were already translated but not approved, so you had to go through all the work previous translators had done before you, check it for errors and inaccuracies and fix them.
This part, just like the previous ones, contained some tricky strings. The White Paper is a hard task, but with your hard work and skills you did a great job once again. Your translation is very good, accurate, sticks to the original writing style of the English text and has no grammatical or syntactical errors, nor misspellings or obscurities.
Your presentation post is also correct, follows the guidelines, and contains a very good description of what we saw here, just a minor note: There was no github link for the White Paper, thus you didn’t use one.
Thank you for working with us, @dimitrisp! Keep it up! :)
