How to report "harmful" translations ?

[Al-Lambig]

Hi,

I started to translate into one of my languages. I noticed that a person wrecked my language. He used only one character for each of his translations, or he copied-pasted the whole English sentence. He made this for about 900 translations... I wanted to report him. But the report page asked me to link to his harmful translations. How can I do that ? Where can I find this link ? Should I copy-paste the 900 links ?

I'm desperate...

This sounds a lot like this post: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=43500, maybe even referring to the same person?
You can see there how to link to a page of vandalized translations (just filter the game page or main page for translations of that player). I think if it's that clear, one or two pages should be enough.
To report them, go to their personal page, click on "report that player" on the top right and choose "has corrupted some translations".

Hi,

Thank you for your answer. Indeed, we are talking about the same person. I see that a report was sent one year ago... And then, nothing happened.

I sent a report again. And we will see if this new report will be ignored again

This raises the question of WHO confirmes such translations.

The whole matter could even have legal implications. Gift points can be used to substitute payments for premium accounts. So it would be fraud. Confirmation of such translations could mean complicity. Just some thoughts ...

Nobody.

Translations are automatically updated once a night, so after max. 24 hours, new and modified translations will be visible.

They become valid after 30 days, if nobody edits them during the first 30 days. So, the community is validating translations by being inactive.

Nevertheless, translations can be edited even after 30 days by experienced community users, but that does not give gift points (nor does it cancel allready awarded gift points).

That all happens automatically, so nobody actively confirms translations.

Every time I think it can't get ...

I've got thoughts, but I don't want to risk getting banned.
