>From the bug triage prep: The Translate extension already has some workflow,
for example in that it does not allow editing a translatable page directly, but
only through the translation editor. Not doing that, would break the relation
(and thus tracking) between translated units and the source page. The
translation status for a whole page, as in use on meta, has to be set manually.
If a page is completely translated, and published, and a change is made to the
source page, requiring an update of the translation, the status for that page
remains published, until someone sets it to "needs updating". If a page is
completely translated, and the status is in progress, someone needs to manually
change it to "needs review". As all the states are configurable per wiki, and
only the order of states is defined, some thought is required on how workflow
rules should work. *IF* they were to be implemented, there would need to be
consensus on them being *strict* and there would be no flexibility around it.
One issue there we can think of, is that the state cannot be set to
"translation complete", before all translations have been reviewed, but that
would always require two active translators, and when during review, a
translation is changed, that would need to be reviewed again by the original
translator. This could lead to unacceptable delays. So...? :)
