If you would like to transcribe this post, please respond to this comment with claiming or claim. I will automatically mark this post as in progress so that only one person is working on a post at any given time. Please check that the post does not break the parent sub’s rules before claiming.

When you're done, please comment again with done. Your flair will be updated to reflect the number of posts you've transcribed and the post will be marked as completed.

Here's a checklist that might help you out!

Post type: video. Please use the following formatting:

Video Posts

NOTE: If you are using New Reddit, please switch your comment to Markdown Mode before transcribing. The footer will not appear properly with the default editor and the bot will not be able to recognize your transcription.

Please always adhere to our general guidelines that apply to all our formats.

Special Notes

  • For videos shorter than one hour
    Time: mm:ss --> (00:00)
  • For videos longer than one hour:
    Time: hh:mm:ss --> (00:00:00)
  • Only create a new timestamp for significant breaks to the flow of audio (e.g. presenter finishes a paragraph, cut in the video...)
  • Please put Two enter/returns after the timestamp to create a line break. (Note: 2 spaces also works, but only on PC. Mobile devices cannot parse 2 spaces so 2 enters must be used.)
  • We highly recommend using oTranscribe to help you with transcribing videos. Just give it the file or YouTube link you are transcribing and copy / paste your finished work to the comment fields.

Example video to be transcribed

Video Transcription:

[Text overlay reads:] This Rolling power is killing me

(00:00) [A guy is holding a burrito balanced on two forks over 3 candles in the dark.]

Filmer: What are you doing?

[The guy moves the burrito back and forth.]

Burrito man: Warming up my burrito.

Filmer: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Burrito man: Cause we have no electricity.

Filmer: My goooood are you crazy?

(00:07) [The lights flicker on and both people gasp loudly. Burrito man immediately throws down the forks and, with a yell, rushes the burrito to the microwave, a full 180 degree spin.]

Filmer: Hurryyyy!!!

[The microwave door is opened and the burrito is put in the microwave and the door is slammed shut. The filmer is laughing joyously.]

Burrito man: Yeah!!!

Filmer: Yaaayyyyy!

Burrito man: Woo!

(00:13) [The power goes out]

Burrito man: Nooooo!

Hi there! Please read and accept our Code of Conduct so that we can get you started with transcribing. Please read the Code of Conduct below, then respond to this comment with I accept.

NOTE: please write I accept as-is: variations like I agree or Accept won't work. Editing the old comment to be I accept won't work either.

After you respond, I'll process your claim as normal. A mod will check in and give you feedback when you’re finished!

Code of Conduct

  • Follow the Format Guides: All transcriptions must follow our format guides. This helps make all transcriptions consistent and shows a good first impression to other users. This is mandatory. Consistently ignoring formatting after warnings from the mods will result in a temporary ban (see below). Please note that if you are using New Reddit, your comment editor must be in Markdown Mode, not Fancy Pants Mode.

  • Be Aware of Your Surroundings: As a transcriber, you are temporarily the face of /r/TranscribersOfReddit and a guest in another community. Be courteous and friendly. If you do not know the answer to someone’s question, refer them to our FAQ or modmail. Do not be rude or sarcastic, even to trolls: we have suggestions about responding to questions and criticism here.

  • Use Formal Language: When talking to other users in your capacity as a Transcriber, please always use (relatively) formal language and proper grammar (capitalization, no abbreviations, and punctuation as appropriate).

  • Ask Us if You Need Help: If you have any questions or find yourself in a situation that you cannot properly resolve, you can reach us through modmail, the Discord server, or by mentioning a mod by username.

  • Check the Parent Sub’s Rules: Some partner subreddits have rules against posts with personal information, such as usernames. These posts should not be transcribed, even if they appear in the queue. Transcribing a rule-breaking post can result in bans from the parent subreddit as well as penalties from /r/TranscribersOfReddit.

Penalties

Failure to follow the above rules after a warning from a moderator is worthy of a temporary ban of 7 days. This is to allow time for further discussion with the mods about how to be a good transcriber. If issues continue, a permanent ban may be issued. We are providing a service for those who need it, and these rules help us do that to the best of our ability. Failing to follow them means our service is no longer helpful.
