Please replace the double space before "What's" with a single one.
I actually prefer French spacing (two spaces after a period for the end of the sentence) and in any case I don't mind if the corpus is inconsistent here. Do we really need to fix these?
I think we should be consistent, and the single space after . is the most common by far. I suppose it's not vital.
Oh yes, one big point - Tatoeba _doesn't_display_ double spaces so having them spaced like that is completely pointless. :-P
I often use the Tanaka corpus as a dump, and I actually then split the sub-sentences, so having two spaces is a useful cue. Consistency is a good thing, but in this case just doesn't feel so urgent.

double space after . isn't standard. At least, not now and not professionally.

Actual practice is probably around 50/50.
