Import a csv-file with translations into Tatoeba?


There are a lot of sentences, which only differ in a first name (e.g. Tom, Jim, Sami). So I exchanged these names to check if there is a translation in the tatoeba database with another first name. (I do this in a local database which only contains the English and German sentences.)

Example:
The sentence "Tom hasn't come home yet." has no German translation, but there is a sentence "Jim hasn't come home yet." with the translation
"Jakob ist noch nicht nach Hause gekommen."
I read this, replaced e.g. "Jakob" by "Tom" and then you have the translation of
"Tom hasn't come home yet." = "Tom ist noch nicht nach Hause gekommen."

With this method I created about 880 new (Eng-Ger) translations. These are stored in a cvs-file (as UTF-8). Finally I have manually checked all these sentences in then cvs-file so there are ready to import. (It is possible that some of the sentences have already been translated in the meantime.)

How or who can import this csv-file to Tatoeba? As a normal contributer I can't do this but I read there is a way. It would be a lot of work to do this manually.
My user id is 73763.

To elaborate:

Indeed, there is a way to mass-import sentences:

I believe that Ricardo meant that you could send a private message to Guybrush88 to ask him to do it for you. Alternatively, you can send me a private message.

Hier als Ankündigung, ich habe eine weitere Liste mit 2000 Übersetungen Eng nach Deu erstellt. Dieses Mal habe ich den Vornamen durch sein Subjekt-Pronomen ersetzt (Tom - he, Mary - she) und die passende äquivalente Übersetzung in der Tatoeba-DB gesucht.
Auch diesmal gilt, alle englischen Sätze sind Sätze, die bereits in Tatoeba existieren und keine deu. Übersetzung hatten (zu dem Zeitpunkt, als die Liste erstellt wurde), nur die deutschen Sätze sind neu, wenn sie noch nicht irgendwo anders als Übersetzung anderer Sprachen mal zugefügt wurden.
