Your Definition

The shorthand/acronym for the job of a cleaner/redrawer of scanlations(typically: fan translation of comics). It combines the letters CL for 'CLeaner' and 'ReDrawer.' This acronym is mostly used on the credits or recruitment page of a scanlation upload. The number of fans of the media being translated is about the same as the number of different ways a job is referred to in the scanlation community (read: MANY different ways). This definition is not an exhaustive list of acronyms that have been used, nor claiming to be the standard usage-- please keep this in mind when trying to apply or compare this definition to real examples. Many different jobs having to do with scanlation were turned into acronyms in the past but the trends as of 2023 seem to be moving away from doing so. Credit pages now often use the full titles rather than acronyms. Sometimes the job of cleaner and the job of redrawer are one in the same and sometimes not, this means there may be just a cleaner, just a redrawer, a cleaner/redrawer, or a cleaner and a redrawer. The example given is of a cleaner/redrawer which is when the job of cleaner and redrawer were both needed and both done by the same person.
