  15. Book non english releases

    in The Coppermind Wiki

    Posted

    OK, I'll leave it to you and I'll add anything else I find until after you post the tables for real.

    My source is this website: 

    http://www.worldcat.org/

    You can search for a book and there is a language filter option on the left. It's not 100% correct because it lists the Dutch mistborn era 1 books as WoK translations, so I don't know if you want to use it. You'd have to verify the results manually afterwards.

    The format though won't work for mobile and will be unreadable - one of the Keeper's (Paleo) had a play around with tables and found that a vertical table was much more readable. The second table on this page.

    You mean a separate table for each book, rather then putting them all in one table, the way that T.rue is doing? (Minus the ISBN, as Starwatcher said.) I based my table of Paleo's second one and just added extra columns for each book. I suppose I don't quite understand what you mean with a "vertical table.

    Don't worry about the duplicate work, this was just to get a feel for the table syntax. And I might have gotten carried away a little bit. I couldn't stop with a half-complete table, you know XD.

    Invention knows the MediaWiki syntax can be a colossal pain

    I actually found a pretty handy tool to generate table syntax. It does like to spread the syntax out vertically, but that's easily fixed, and doesn't affect how the end result looks.

    As for getting on the same page: @T.rue do you mind if I start adding to your page, since you have more stuff than I do at the moment? We seem to each have found translations the other missed. I'll keep to the same formatting you do, just adding content.

  22. How does sign language work with awakening?

    in Cosmere Q&A

    Posted

    Yup, looks like it:

    How many Awakening Commands are there? Is there a finite number, a finite but large number or infinite? Can you Awaken with sign language?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yes, you can Awaken with sign language. I would say that there are an infinite number, would be my guess. It's either finite but very, very large or infinite. But they're gonna fall into groups as things tend to do in the Cosmere, I would say.

    The biggest hurdle we often run in to is people being free to implement a change.

    I can also help. I don't have programming skills, but I have time and my Google fu is strong. If someone can start the page on the coppermind, and start the table, I'm sure I can figure out how to expand it.

    My best source is this library catalogue:

    http://www.worldcat.org/

    The filters let you search by language, but it's not entirely accurate. It misses my Dutch mistborn translation when searching for TFE and adds it to the WoK translations instead, for example.
