In addition to proposing individual articles to translate, users may get more motivated to translate if they are provided a short sequence of meaningful translations. For example top-3 most read articles about Science, or 3 featured articles about furniture.
Showing the user progress can motivate to complete the sequence, translate more, and feel the translation process more meaningful as we make the impact more visible.

Wouldn't it go well with Suggestions (T87439)?
Yes. This is part of the same brainstorming we did. Basically we were wondering what would happen if instead of suggesting to translate one article we provide a pack of three closely related articles to translate. Would be users more willing to complete that sequence than when presented as individua items?
There are many details to figure out, and the experience with the basic support for suggestions will help to evaluate whether the idea seems promising and inform the next steps for its design. So this is probably more long term thinking.
