In another context I thought about the possibility for links in foreign languages as long as they are marked, and maybe summarized by a sentence to help people get the context. I think in todays time with browser being able to translate, that should be a feasible approach. I didn't find time to debate that with the other mods, yet.
To me, coming from a moderation perspective, the idea of whole discussions in a plentitude of languages is problematic. In my opinion, we would need to have more mods being able to at least police content if need be.
Level. Allow German, French and Spanish. You should be able to get mods that speak at least one of those languages. And I'm saying this as someone who speaks none of those. But I think it would be good if English didn't have such a dominance. Might even motivate people to learn one.
Well. The point is, that this approach could be a disfavor for all the eastern European countries, which users may also discuss in their native languages.
Also the server rules state, that they are in for German/English communities.
