Do you know how many languages they speak in The Netherlands? Wink Check the "Happy Birthday" message board posted by Erik! Big%20smile

 

Anyway, imagine the amount of reviews in several languages dominating the mainpage while the Translation Team is still managing to translate some of them... Shocked


My idea would be that the review would be submitted to the translation team before it was posted.

My only concerns about the translation team is if there will not be an avalanche of reviews and ways to not put the words out of context accidentally.

It would be better than what is available now, which is nothing. At least people who don't speak English would have the opportunity to post a review.

a translation team is surely much better than ratings without review
The devil we blame our atrocities on is really just each one of us.

I agree about the translation team thing. It would be better than ratings without reviews.
I would offer to help but my Spanish is somewhat bad even though I took two years and got an A in the class...

 My idea is exactly that. Perhaps writting guidelines in at least 5 languages, explaining how to work it, and put links to the translators for each language so they could access to them and send private messages with their original reviews (including name of the album/band).
 
Of course there would be times when one collaborator has saturated while others receive none; so that one collaborator transfers some of his' to another. However as far as reviews reporting just read few cases, so perhaps it won't be such as burden as originally thought

I'm for showing who has rated an album. But I've probably rated 50 albums and only 9 or 10 of them probably have reviews? Why? I simply have nothing to say about that album. I listen to it a few times, then simply decide how much I like it. I only usually type a review if there's something interesting aboutt the album, or it is the first review.

 I agree with you. ''reviews in english only'' is serious problem. Though I write this article in English, I can't review any albums by the language. You may not be able to believe me but I can't speak English at all. Cry This is the reason why I rate without reviews. Embarrassed
