Re-post a @papa-pepper post in another language and keep the payout!
Here’s a great opportunity for some bilingual steemians. Not all of us have the same skill sets or talents, so not all of us have the same opportunities. Since there are certain skills that I lack, I’ve offering up this opportunity for whoever may like to take advantage of it.
In my short time one steemit, I’ve had some great success and I believe that I have also created some great posts.
However, those posts will never have the capability to make the most difference that they can when they are only posted in English.
Here’s where you come in.
If you can read and translate English, why not translate some of my posts into your native language, or into another language that you know?
Here’s the deal, to further the progression of steemit as a community and to be a greater blessing to others within the steemit community, I will allow other users to translate my previous articles and post the translations themselves.
Here are just a few guidelines:
• Send me a reply on which article you would like to translate.
• Tell me what language you want to translate it into.
• You can use any or all of the original images from my post.
• Please link my original “English Version” article at the end of your post.
• Make it clear in your title or opening paragraph that your post is a translation of one of my articles.
• One the translated post is made, send me a comment or private message with the link.
Basically, I am willing to allow any user the permission to translate any of my articles into another language and post the translated article themselves.
If you choose to translate one, whatever STEEM, Steem Power, or SBD that the translated articles generate will be yours to keep.
If you get a great payout and feel like sharing some with @papa-pepper to help with the progression of our homestead you can, but you do not need to!
A lot of the articles that I have written lately have been for the purpose of helping others to do their best on steemit and not get discouraged. Many users have found these articles to be very beneficial and many whales have shown their support with upvotes.
Still, if those articles remain available only in English, their influence will never reach as far as it could with your help.
So many of those voting for my posts have their own posts in Russian, German, Chinese, or some other language anyway. Why not offer your followers one of my posts in their own language, and get paid for doing it?
You won’t even have to write the article or gather images, just translate my writing and copy my images!
@xanoxt, @felixxx, & @dresden - These users unintentionally helped manifest this idea.
I would like to thank @xanoxt for mentioning that he gets paid to translate when I was considering ways that people could make money on steemit.
Though I will not personally pay you to do the translation, you still have my permission to translate and post, and you can even keep the entire payout you want.
Also, @dresden recently translated an article into Spanish for @felixxx, and they donated the payout to our homestead.
As I considered the blessing of overcoming the language barrier, I came up with the idea for this post.
Here are some suggested articles for translation, but you could pick any of my articles for the purpose of translation if you want.

NOW THAT YOU’VE GOT A REPUTATION TO UPHOLD
Those are just a few suggestions. Check my blog history, there is plenty of others to choose from, and plenty of languages that they could be translated into.
If your native language is Russian, or Chinese, or German, or Spanish, or another one, please let those who speak those languages know about this great opportunity. Often, it can be difficult to come up with ideas for a post, so I've taken that part out of the equation. Now, users can just choose which one they want to translate, if they prefer!
Though this opportunity may not be for everyone, it may be a good idea for many of you. If you think you’d like to give it a try, let me know by commenting below.

Thanks.
I completely agree.
This could potentially lead to hundreds of more posts, when you check how many I've made and consider the languages that they could be translated into.
My favorite part is that it gives a helping hand to those who cannot read English well, because it makes some very helpful articles of mine available in their native tongue, as long as someone steps in to do the translating work.
Then, the translator only has to translate to get another post up, and can keep the payout for thier work!
Appreciate your encouragement!

wow, an amazing opportunity and fascinating idea. I have some questions, how would you prefer to be contacted, here or through another method? I thinking of Espanol.

You can do it right here, or on https://steemit.chat if you prefer.
If someone translates one, I would suggest linking it in the comments of whatever my most recent post is at the time.
That will both notify me so I can check it out and also perhaps point some of my followers towards the post as well.
Thank you for your interest, did you have something in mind?

This is a great idea. I was wondering if I could somehow post your article under my name with the same message? To be fair, what compensation do you want? 100% of the SBD? I really love this idea, so I think more exposure is necessary, and I'd be up for people translating my blog posts into foreign languages too!

If any other user desires to offer the same opportunity that I have here, that is certainly an option that they have.
If anyone else desired to do the same, I would not consider it wrong for them to do so.
If you would like to just paste my text on a post with your name, I am okay with that, and if you desire to share some of the profits you get from that post with me I will not turn down your offer.
Thanks, and you have my full permission.

Thing is, I do it on a semi-pro bono conditions. I translate for 10% of the SBD payout. After some time people like @villainblack said: "My posts are earning too little to make that worth your while, so why don't I pay you 10% of the total payout".
And attitude like that is actually what makes Steemit great! :-D
There is also @rusteemitblog, that I am a part of, and we do translations that would be helpful for the Russian community.
But that is negotiated on individual basis. And still there are people thinking, that this is too much, "What if whales upvote my post to the tune of $200-300? That would make it like $12-20 SBD, for such a small text, your rates are too expensive!" They don't count the risks with the fact that Steemit is still a bit lottery like, so a lot of times my cut is like 0.01 or around that. :-D
Needless to say, those are not people who I do translations for. Since my prices is out of their range, they make do with someone else or something else.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yeah, there is a lot to consider in deals like that.
That's why my deal is you pick the post you want to translate, you do the work and post the translated post yourself, then you keep the entire payout, unless it does so well that you want to share some with me.
I think that this approach gives the translator a lot of control over the process.
My work is done, and I have done all that I can with these posts on steemit.
Now, someone else can have their chance with the same post, if they are willing to put some work and some risk into it.
I cannot guarantee that their post will do well, but if it does, they can reap the blessing from it!

Yep, that is the attitude that makes Steemit great (again ;))!
After I am finished with my current (real for money, yay Steemit landed me that opportunity) work, I'll probably do one of your texts, and I also notified the translators at @rusteemitblog, that your articles are in the game, since we are in business of translating the articles that are helpful to the Russian community, you can expect that witheen a week or two, most of the ones listed in this post will likely have Russian translations! Early morning, I was mentioning them in my comment because I was going to ping them about that. :-D

And. If anyone uses a bot or app do be prepared to lose a lot face.
I know some of the CN tag dolphins are always checking for robot translations.

Good point and excellent thing to be sharing, pertaining to bots.
The goal was to have real users translate the posts themselves, so hopefully people will shy away from robot translations.
I was hoping that users would contact me first with which article they wanted to translate and what language they want to translate it into.
Some of these are really helpful articles, do I'm excited about others getting to read them.
Hopefully users with a lot of followers who speak other languages can then share this information with them too.
Let me know how it goes, and thanks @solarguy!
