Till now, we have only one function, that is purely translation, and I find that some requesters don't even try to think about their texts even when they know the target languages. So this encourages laziness and labours our translating members.

Why not add a translation verifying function, for another kind of requesters, who don't ask for translations, but for review on their own translations carried out by our members. The requester who uses this function can submit his/her own try or what he has done without enough confidence, to ask for member's help in verifying it or editing necessarily.

But if requester uses machine translations, it is easy to find out.

We should promote the idea of DIY, instead of trying to satisfying lazybones.
