Pagination
It would be nice if the pagination was just inversely.
What I mean exactly: when I write the "book of my sentences", I always write on the page 1.
That's totally unlogical. The sentences locate always on a different page and a certain page contains always different sentences. If I want to look for something in a book, I know about where to search. The orderliness and permanence are pretty good things in many aspects.

I've created a ticket - https://github.com/Tatoeba/tatoeba2/issues/981

Note that the order of one’ sentences used to be the way you want: chronological. At some point, it has been changed to the current order (reverse chronological), likely because someone requested it.

I understand your point, but I think it also makes sense the way it is now, to display the newest sentences first. It makes that page dynamic and I think newest sentences is the information many contributors are primary looking for. What new sentences X contributed? Anything new to translate from him/her? is a question I often ask myself. I remember before the order changed, I needed to first hit the first page and then click on the last page to see the newest sentences. Not only was it bothering, but then I started to remember by heart the first sentences just because I was always going through the first page first. Which is not what I wanted. That being said, there was no advanced search at that time. We can now use it to get someone’ sentences in whatever order.

And, well, I think Tatoeba is not a book, so, yes, it won’t work if you’re trying to use it like a book.

Du hast recht, master. Es ist viel besser, wenn die Seiten-Nummerierung bei den ältesten Sätzen beginnt. Aber trotzdem sollten die neuesten Sätze zuerst angezeigt werden (so wie es jetzt schon geschieht).

Al_ez_an_der, es geht nicht darum, dass die ältesten Sätze zuerst müssten angezeigt werden; nicht das ganze Buch sollte verkehrt werden, nur die Numerierung.
Ich kapiere, es ist kein Buch, erst durch das Beispiel eines Buches kann ich anschaulich machen, woran ich genau dachte.
Wenn ich ein Buch schreibe, kann ich es auf die Seite aufschlagen, wo ich letztes Mal was schrieb.

Außerdem, dass das jetztige System gegen alle Logik geht, verursacht einige Schwierigkeiten.
Ein Beispiel: Ich will deutsche Anführungszeichen finden, weil es auf meiner Tastatur keine gibt, und diese Suche dauert mir eine Weile. (Das ist nur eins.)
