| | | | |
| − | TQAuditor 2.0 is the system, that '''evaluates and monitors translation quality''' and allows you to:
| + | *'''[[File:123.png|180px|link=Evaluator user manual]]''' |
| | | | |
| − | *'''compare''' unedited translation made by translator with edited version received from an editor; | + | *'''[[File:tr.png|180px|link=Translator user manual]]''' |
| − | | |
| − | *'''generate a report''' about editor’s corrections;
| |
| − | | |
| − | *'''classify''' each correction by mistake type and severity, thus allowing to get the translation quality evaluation score with a maximum 100 points;
| |
| − | | |
| − | *ensure '''anonymous communication''' between a translator and an editor regarding corrections and mistakes classification;
| |
| − | | |
| − | *'''automate a process''' of maintaining the evaluation project;
| |
| − | | |
| − | *'''save''' all evaluated translations '''in the database''' and create the translation quality reports at the company:
| |
| − | | |
| − | you can '''create the list of top translators''' with the highest score, '''see dynamics of quality''' per individual translator by month, etc.
| |

| − | | |
| − | [[file:view in comparison.jpg|border|600px]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | When you have evaluated all segments press "'''Complete evaluation'''":

| |
| − | | |
| − | [[file:complete evaluation details page (complete).jpg|border|400px]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | After generating the comparison report, the system sends the notification to the translator, and the translator may see all the corrections done in his deliveries.
| |
| − | | |
| − | But this is just the beginning - the project evaluator may start quality assessment process. Please see the next chapter for more info.

| |
| − | | |
| − | =='''Discussion of mistakes'''==
| |
| − | | |
| − | When project evaluator finishes assessing the translation quality, project translator gets email notification.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==='''Translator reviews the quality feedback'''===
| |
| − | | |
| − | After the translator has received the email with the translation quality evaluation, the translator should do the following actions:
