Reports go straight to the moderation team, not into a public queue, so you won't see anyone else's reports. Novels, comments, reviews, and wiki pages each report through a similar flag icon or Report button, covered below.
Reporting a novel#
On a novel page, select Report to open the report dialog. Choose an area, then the specific issue:
| Area | Issues |
|---|---|
| Chapters & Source | Missing / incomplete, Duplicate / out of order, Better source, Needs retranslation |
| Metadata | Title, Author, Description, Status, Protagonist, Still in Chinese |
| Cover | Wrong cover |
| Genre | Wrong genre |
| Tags | Add or remove specific tags |
| Fandom | Add or remove specific fandoms |
| Other | Anything else |
Some issues show quick-reason chips to speed up your report. For example, Missing / incomplete offers "Chapters are truncated / missing text", "Some chapters are missing", and "Chapters are blank / not loading". You can always add your own description too.
Still in Chinese re-runs the novel's metadata translation and doesn't need a suggested replacement value. Reporting a Tags or Fandom issue lets you propose specific additions or removals rather than describing the problem in free text.
Resetting the glossary#
When you report Needs retranslation, you can also turn on Also reset the glossary. This clears the novel's glossary so names are re-detected as chapters retranslate; any entries a human has already edited are kept. Only use this if the glossary itself has systemic naming problems. Most retranslation issues don't need it.
You can file up to 20 novel reports a day.
What happens after you report a novel#
A moderator reviews your report. You get a notification when it's approved or rejected. If your report is approved, you also earn 20 XP the first time you report that novel successfully. See Levels and Achievements.
Reporting a comment or review#
Select the flag icon on a comment, reply, or review to report it. Comment and reply reports offer quick reasons for spam, harassment, spoilers, off-topic content, or inappropriate content; review reports use free text. See Reviews and Comments for the full flow.
Reporting a wiki page#
On a glossary wiki page, select Report to flag it. Choose an issue: Wrong image, Wrong / false info, Outdated, Inappropriate, or Other, each with its own quick reasons, plus a text field. See Wikis for what wiki pages are.
You can file up to 20 wiki reports a day. This limit is the same on every tier. Only moderators are exempt.
DMCA takedowns#
RandomTranslator doesn't have an in-app DMCA form. To file a takedown notice, email [email protected] with the details required under DMCA section 512(c)(3), or reach out through Contact. The DMCA page covers the full notice-and-takedown process, including how to file a counter-notification if your content was removed in error.
