Wording for "appear" (登場, literally entry or appearance) is likely to be changed in the future due to complicated text How about "enter"? "When this card enters", "make it enter an empty Square", "if it did not enter a Square". "Race" (種族) will be changed to "Tribe" per Z/X Activation Guide translation Sure. All romanization for Japanese name will be updated with modified Hepburn as the standard I prefer this actually.

A question, how to translate something like あなたの手札にあるカードを１枚選び、トラッシュに置いてよい where you choose something then conduct an optional effect? I see that most cards, using the above example, translate it into "choose a card in your hand, and you may put it into Trash" (e.g. Pierce Machine, Penetrate) but I also see some translate it into "you may choose a card in your hand, and put it into Trash." (e.g. Student Body President, Stella). Personally I prefer the second one where the may is on choose because it's kinda weird to choose a target but not actually use the effect.

Also something about tenses, I feel that some verbs used in the translation are lacking in tenses. For example このカードが攻撃した時、 is translated as "When this card attack," but I feel that "When this card attacks," is more correct English.
