== Partial block ==
It has come to staff's attention that your contributions to the [[Pokémon card art life]] article have been heavy influenced, if not entirely done by, online AI machine translations. Despite being a useful tool to ''assist'' human translation, relying solely on AI translation is problematic because AI machine translations are not only unreliably inaccurate, but they produce nonsensical grammatical constructions, and fail in cases where specialty terms such as game attacks and other franchise specific concepts are localized instead of translated. All of these issues are present in your contributions to the article.
You have been partially blocked from editing the article for an equal amount of time you've been contributing to it: 6 months. This is to ensure that no further inaccurate translations are added, and provides time for Japanese-speaking contributors to repair the inaccurate content that has been published on the article. Once this has been accomplished, you can appeal your block to the {{bp|Editorial Board}}. During the duration of your partial block, if you wish to continue contributing to the article using '''human-created''' translations, you can do so via the article's talk page so that they can be verified by an Japanese-speaking contributor.
