It's really nice that they have a review system! Is there a way to encourage people to review? I.e. can you specifically mark stuff as "WE NEED MORE REVIEWS"? And thus, can you try to only deploy reviewed translations in the future? Or even get all existing ones reviewed? > > Another possible tradeoff would be configuring it to only automatically > > allow people to translate if their ratings are good.

Well, I guess if there is a review system the ratings aren't that important. There is sybil of course though... I guess one should keep an eye on people's ratings if there are very few reviews, or a strange influx of many reviews... I probably should finally sign up with the site, its difficult to state an opinion on this without having looked at it. But fake translations are a really very very cheap attack which could be done without ANY technical knowledge, so we probably should at least make sure that translations get reviewed before we deploy them.
