Thread:INaturalist talk:Fields can only be edited by the people who/de/unclear/reply (3)


 * ''Semantically it says now clearly: Only curators and persons, which created them (=the curators), are allowed to edit fields.

No. It say so syntactically. But since that reading was semantically wrong, it is a valid German sentence.

I do not understand that either - I likely only wrote my own translation down. Interesting.

Your translation is a typical non-native try having several flaws.
 * Initial article not used but others - no, no. :-)
 * Word order complicated, unnecessarily clumsy and not aiding understanding.
 * People around me reread the sentence up to four times.
 * People whom I read the sentence took considerable time until their faces signaled understanding
 * some shook their heads: That can be said more easily.
 * ", und" with an ongoing or recurring semantic thread is bad German.
 * something "ist nur den Personen erlaubt, die" is a bureaucratic kind of wording - not commonly liked.

Suggeset paraphrase:

Personen dürfen Felder bearbeiten, die sie selbst erstellt haben, Kuratoren haben Zugriff auf alle Felder.
