We need a better way of ensuring new entries get checked by someone. With special emphasis on entries added by new users.
Tatoeba with Ratings:
Okay, this is probably a really bad idea, but... If we wanted to experiment with what Tatoeba would be like with ratings, we could technically try and simulate it with tags. Simply leave a tag "good + #" or "bad + #" for a thumbs up/down system, or "1-10 + [some string to make it unique]" for a 1-10...
Just a thought.
No thanks - I think there are enough useless and semi-useless tags already.
What do you guys think of this idea?
1 - Atrocious
2 - Terrible
3 - Horrifying
4 - Bad
5 - Not good
+1
IMO, this kind of metadata is not fit for tags.
My idea: Tatoeba Dictionary will be opened.
In the Tatoeba Project, this dictionary will be used in translation of sentences. Because I'm using google translate as a english-turkish dictionary. But I don't translate sentences with this!
But Tatoeba Dictionary will contain only words, not sentences.
Is it a good idea?

Thank you for the link! ^^
IMHO their license is too restrictive.
For words, sure it's not the goal of tatoeba, we're focusing on sentences. I'm discussing with the guys of shtooka (those who provide us audio) as their first focus was too record words, and they're on the way to extand more the "website"/"works over the internet" part, maybe they will be the tatoeba of words ?
We have Wiktionary for this purpose, don't we?
But please have a good behaviour in Wiktionary - or you will be blocked soon and permanently as a vandal.
Wictionary is hard to edit for an average user.
It’s hard to find a balance between a computer-parsable dictionary and a easy-to-edit for an average human being. The Wiktionary is *much* *more* *complicated* than Tatoeba.
Aslo, although it’s exportable and parseable, but I haven’t seen any program that presents the exported data in a form of a bilingual dictionary.
All in all, I believe the Wiki engine is not fit for creating dictionaries.
I think we’ll run into the problem of a dictionary later:
1. Now we have some tags [verb_of_motion, Genitive] that are better fit as tags for words, not for sentences. => We need tags for words.
2. We can’t tag all the words, or force users to do it, since it’s too much work. => We need a morphology analyser.
3. Morphology data about the words need the dictionary. Wiktionary is hard to edit for an average user and rarely exported. => We need something more lightweight.
So I believe one day something like Tatoeba dictionary will emerge.
Also, there is a problem: what language edition of Wiktionary to choose? The explanations are different, but the translations in all Wiktionaries in fact duplicate each other.
@Demetrius
I don't think you know what you said ;)
kisses
Now I don’t know if I know what I’ve said.
ö (It’s my new way of writing :o)
^ö^
Cool!
You're right. Is my idea good?
1 - Terrible
2 - Bad
3 - Average
4 - Good
5 - Perfect
Haha... can one person vote multiple times?
I allow to vote multiple times to all users.
I vote 5 an infinite number of times! This idea is infinitely perfect.
And Tatoeba Project's logo is green, Tatoeba Dictionary's logo color will be selected by administrators.
By the way, there is a secret copy of Tatoeba. ;) It is blue.

@sysko:
What have you done to the Uzbek transliteration?
Хитойға қарағанда, Швейцария бир тарк этилган қишлоқ бўлади.
Xitoyg'a qarag'anda, SHvyeyтсariya bir tark etilgan qishloq bo'ladi.
(Ш → SH, not Sh; е → ye in the middle of words, тс is not converted into ц, apostrophe is typographically incorrect: ' is used to separate s'h, ‘ is used in g‘ and o‘)
And it should be:
Xitoyg‘a qarag‘anda, Shveysariya bir tark etilgan qishloq bo‘ladi.
And the script I’ve sent you (test it at http://uyghur.webatu.com/uzb/ ) DOES IT CORRECTLY. :angry:
You haven’t “optimized” it by removing the Cyr→Lat array and using the only one array, have you? >:E

It will be deleted, thank you.
