A Reddit bot to translate fully/partially Chinese comments to English (not running, banned in /r/china)
We use snoostorm
and snoowrap
to read every comment posted in /r/china. We check every word in every comment using franc
to determine if its language is Mandarin Chinese. If the lanaguage is Mandarin Chinese,
we use baidu-translate-api
to poorly translate the Chinese to English. We also use pinyin
to generate pinyin for each translation. Although the bot isn't running any longer, you can still
check its user profile to view some of its translations.
