User:Geo Swan/my prod nominations
This is not a Wikipedia article: It is an individual user's rough notes page, and may be incomplete and/or unreliable. |
If a prod is successful, the nominator's nomination is also deleted, unavailable for ordinary contributors to read. Well, maybe some of my nominations are worth re-reading?

Will Firth | 2019-03-29 |
references can be found to substantiate that Firth is an experienced translator. But none of the references I found said anything notable about his translations. Patrick O'Brian supported himself, for decades, as a translator, his translations included Papillon, which, I am sure, would never have made the English-language best-seller list, would never have been made into two Hollywood movies, if it weren't that O'Brian was himself a gifted writer. Even so, it is a poorly recognized skill, and I doubt whether even O'Brian would have measured up to our inclusion criteria, solely for his work as a translator.
