    Hey folks, I think you can forget about this one.
    I guess I just better use "Registered By" here like it's used everywhere else on the site.
    Or do you disagree?

    Hi Ardik, I agree, "Registered by" is better. I changed the portuguese translation acording to this.

  3. Luis Spanish Translator with all proofreading rights

    I also agree. "Registered by" sounds better also in spanish.

  4. Christo Afrikaans Translator with all proofreading rights

    I'm happy either way. "Geregistreer deur" is quite a bit longer than "Registreerder" but the latter is a made-up word and does feel a bit clunky.

  5. Ami Japanese Translator with all proofreading rights

    I think Registrant sounds better in Japanese. But either way is fine :)

    We (Greek Bookcrossers) hardly ever use the noun, so I translated as registered by.

    OK, I'll keep this string (instead of removing it and re-using the "Registered by" string used elsewhere on the site) and leave it to you which form to use.

    I only suggest to use the same phrase here and in other places of the site (namely in book details) - but probably you've done this, anyway. After all it was me himself who started the confusion by using "registrant" here ... ;-/

    I have translated it to the "Registered by" in Norwegian as well, the noun will just sound strange.
