PaperSmart-translation

Overview

Create a Chinese academic version of an existing PaperSmart manuscript. This is a translation and localization workflow, not a new drafting workflow.

Language And Path Mode

Before reading project files, read the PaperSmart profile:

• English mode: shared/memory/papersmart_profile.md
• Chinese mode: 共享/记忆/papersmart_profile.md

Use the configured path map. This skill normally writes Chinese output even if the workspace is in English mode.

Required Reading

Read from the active project:

1. 03_output/manuscript/paper.md
2. 03_output/tables when table titles, captions, or terminology must match
3. 03_output/figures when figure titles, captions, or labels must match
4. 03_output/supplement/claim_source_map.md when claims or terminology need traceability
5. 02_reference/style_notes.md if the Chinese version must match a journal style

In Chinese workspace mode, use the equivalent configured paths.

Do not translate from obsolete drafts unless the user explicitly selects them.

Workflow

1. Confirm the source manuscript path. Default: 03_output/manuscript/paper.md.
2. Extract terminology choices from the manuscript, tables, figures, and claim-source map.
3. Translate into polished Chinese academic prose suitable for Chinese scholarly readers.
4. Preserve scientific meaning, cautious claim boundaries, numeric values, citations, table/figure numbering, declarations, and all TODO: markers.
5. Keep stable file names unchanged while translating table and figure titles/captions.
6. Keep original English technical terms in parentheses at first mention when useful.
7. Write the Chinese manuscript to 03_output/translation/paper_zh.md unless the user specifies another path.
8. Write 03_output/translation/translation_notes.md.
9. Record the translation pass in 03_output/revision/change_log.md.

Terminology Guidance

Prefer established Chinese academic terms for:

• generative AI
• latent diffusion model
• LoRA
• image aesthetic assessment
• computational aesthetics
• computational creativity
• diachronic trajectory
• static specimen
• expert blind review
• triangulated evaluation

When a term is ambiguous or field-specific, preserve the English term at first mention and list the choice in translation_notes.md.

Boundaries

• Do not add new data, citations, claims, journal requirements, author information, ethics statements, funding, conflicts, or acknowledgements.
• Do not smooth away TODO: markers.
• Do not change citation numbering unless the source manuscript already has an error and the user asks for citation repair.
• Do not make the Chinese text more conclusive than the English source.

Translation Notes

## Preserved TODOs

## Passages requiring author confirmation

## Files generated

Final Check

Before finishing, check that:

• paper_zh.md exists.
• translation_notes.md lists terminology and unresolved items.
• All citations, figure/table references, declarations, and TODOs remain aligned with the source.
• The change log records the translation.
