Resolved It seems my novel is locked or hidden.

[Rhythm_Nova]

Hello! My novel is an original novel, which I write in Chinese and then translate into English for publication on Scribble Hub. Is this a violation?


Yesterday, due to my operational mistake, I uploaded a partially untranslated chapter, and now my novel might be locked or hidden.


What should I do about this matter?

Translations are only allowed if you are also the original author; all others are de-listed. If this is the case, please forward this with an explanation of what happened and proof that you are the original author to [email protected].

There has been a significant issue with non-permitted translations, and the net to catch them is quite wide as a result.

The story is hidden, not locked or deleted: do not re-upload it unless instructed.
Series are only deleted by the admin for criminal content (such as child pornography). Yes, someone did actually try that. It did not end well for them.

Yes, I am the original author. How can I prove that my novel is my novel?

Piracy is a huge problem now. That's why they have to be careful. :S

As someone who uploaded a (very rough) translation of my story to another site, the way I make sure everyone knows it's mine is by keeping the English version a chapter ahead of the translation. I also use the same name on my other account, and mention where else I'm uploading it on every site. Those are some of the ways you can do it, but I don't know if it's a sure-fire method.

By having mentions of all services you publish on in descriptions, also on all services you publish on. Preferably in all languages you publish in.

In fact, I have only ever published in English. The other platform I publish on is Royal Road, and my pen name across all platforms is Rhythm Nova.

Ah you published it there first? That can take a day or two longer (at least from my experience) to be approved (and the reverse is even worse).

Yep, I knew about that, so I submitted it to Royal Road for review early and set the chapters to publish manually. That prevented them from being released right after approval.

I don't know if I can drop the link, but if you search for the title on RR, you'll find the posting times on RR and SH are almost the same.

Mine was up for five months on RR before I posted it here. Took three days to approve (and, mostly because I didn't notice it at first, three weeks for it to show up on searches) instead of the usual approximately 8 hours for the stuff I posted here first or exclusively.
