Could you clarify this?
Most similar translation frameworks also have checkers in place (e.g. weblate and Pootle, and the translate-toolkit checks are also used by Mozilla's Pontoon), but the ability for humans to find new ways to create buggy translations that slip past these checks is amazing, far exceeding the time available for translation infrastructure programmers to build better rules and checkers. But maybe, we can induct some GCI participants into the role of creating better rules and checkers...

@Nemo_bis , do we have checkers for that? (and where can I find a list of existing checkers?) If so, those shell scripts in the iOS app repo can be removed. If not, perhaps we should create a task to migrate those iOS app checkers into the TWN infrastructure, so that any further improvements to those rules benefit all projects instead of only benefiting the iOS app. I have a probable GCI participant who is interested in tackling this.
