Right now, we don't know if those edits are not reverted because they are
productive or if the community is overwhelmed, so I wouldn't make that

I don't think that is the case.

hopefully this will be cancelled soon.

Other measures, like porting other tools to Portuguese will probably take
longer to implement.
