If you know anyone who wants to translate any of it into Chinese, Forseti would be interested.

I might. The primary problem would be translating the technical terms. The person I have in mind is computer-literate but by no means an IT professional, so terms like "EPP domain," "nonroutable" and "black hole" will likely present difficulties: I doubt he knows what these are called in Chinese. On the other hand, he may know people who do. I'll look into it. I've noticed a few English<=>Chinese online IT glossaries like this one that might be helpful -- but they seem by and large to lack the terms needed for this specific purpose.
I note that there are translations of the pages Suspending an EPP domain and Suspending a non-EPP domain, just not of the pages on suspending name server domains.

You have misquoted what Complainterator generates. It is in fact
> http://www.spamtrackers.hk/wiki/index.php?title=Registrar_Advice for China
"for China" is a comment - not part of the URL.
Yes, it is in English. Yes it would be better in Chinese. We would welcome assistance from competent translaters.
The reason that there is a different link for China (spamtrackers.hk) than there is for the rest of the world (spamtrackers.eu) is simple. The Great Firewall of China (The Golden Shield) has blocked the spamtracker.eu site from loading. When we last checked, we saw that the spamtrackers.hk site, being resident on Hong Kong, is not blocked, nor should it be.
The URL http://castlecops.com is not blocked from Shanhhai not Beijing.
This very message thread is not blocked.

I'll see if I can buttonhole a volunteer.

Wouldn't it be useful, then, to have the Chinese translations of Suspending an EPP domain and Suspending a non-EPP domain on the HK version of the site, which can still be accessed from China?

I have contacted a friend from China, currently studying in the U.S., who has in turn sent the request around to several of his friends, all native Chinese speakers.
He has asked which pages need translating as a priority. I suggested Suspending an EPP name server domain and Suspending a non-EPP name server domain. If there are others, perhaps I could ask you to me a list of them ranked in order of priority and I'll pass it along.
My friend has also asked if there are any special formatting requirements and what file type the translations should be saved as.

The absolutely ideal would be formatting using the Wiki tags, which can be quite a minimal subset. Or use html tags - for example
'''bold''' or <b>bold</b>
''italics'' or <i>italics</i>
<u>underlined</u>
==level 2 header==
===level 3 header===
<br> for a new line
<br><br> for a space and new line
Priorities - see http://spamtrackers.eu/wiki/index.php?title=Translations

[naive mode]
I still think we are close to Xin Net shutting down ns-martian.com, or should I say specifically
ns1.ns-martian.com
I believe Xin Net think they did it yesterday - the account was modified yesterday and regardless of whoever did it (Xin Net or the spammer), sending the Xin Net techies the link in Chinese would surely finish it.
[/naive mode]
Hehe, unless Xin Net are in on it of course!
Has anyone had any luck with the Chinese instructions?

Actually, they simply placed the domain on ClientHold, so as an attempt to inactivate the name servers (if this is what was intended) it was a failure.
The suspension of this and some other domains was forced on them by a compliance notice from ICANN. There's a thread about it here. ICANN sent me a notice about the domain suspensions that I posted here.

That was my job: so far, no luck. Recently my emails to my friend in China have begun bouncing off the Great Firewall. I'm going to try to contact his son, who's at school in the USA, to see if he has a more reliable way to contact his father from North America.
