Prevent unreviewed automated translation to be published on Extension:Translate
Open, MediumPublicFeature

Description

After delivering a message translated in multiple languages, I've received some feedback from a community, which received it badly translated. People who provided the feedback claims that the text is just some automated translation pasted there (probably from Apertium).

Have a warning about automated translations, like in CX2, would help.

Event Timeline

Since the translation items are handled and published individually, I suppose this would have to be for items over a certain size?

I guess that if it's just a word or two, the warning would be more of a nuisance than help? But for entire sentences, well, Apertium is rarely so on spot.
