3249## Things Contributors Can Do
3350
3451* You should **learn the aims of this project**.
3552 * Briefly, ...
3653 * We are collecting sentences and their translations into other langauges.
3754 * We don't want single words and phrases that are not sentences.* For more detail, ...
3855 * Read our blog entry on [how to be a good contributor](http://blog.tatoeba.org/2010/02/how-to-be-good-contributor-in-tatoeba.html).
3956 * Read our blog entry about [our submission policy](http://blog.tatoeba.org/2010/08/submission-policy-what-kind-of-content.html).* Read our [FAQ](http://tatoeba.org/eng/faq).* You can **translate a sentence** by clicking on this icon ![](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/translate.png) whenever you see it.
4057* Please do not forget **capital letters** and **punctuation.**
4158* If you are looking for a good set of sentences to translate, sentences tagged [less than 8 words](http://tatoeba.org/eng/tags/show_sentences_with_tag/less_than_8_words) is a good place to start.* You can **correct mistakes** that you find, if the sentence is not "owned" by another user.
4259
4360* To do this, ...* You can **add alternate translations**. (![](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/translate.png))
4461
4562* Instead of changing unnatural-sounding, yet correct sentences, Tatoeba.org prefers that you leave these and add an alternate translation.
4663* If you feel there are several possible translations, you can add several translations in the same language.* You can **add comments to sentences**.
4764
4865* If you find a mistake, but it's "owned" by another user, then leave a comment telling the "owner" how it can be corrected.
4966* If you see something that seems strange or you don't understand, you can leave a comment and someone may explain it to you.
5067* If you find things that are absolute nonsense or are not sentences, you can leave a comment alerting moderators that perhaps the item should be deleted.* You can** proofread sentences** and "adopt" (![](http://tatoeba.org/img/adopt.png?1271500434)) sentences that you think are good.
5168
5269* Generally speaking, "owned" sentences are more likely to be error free.  This is especially true if the "owner" of a sentence is not the same person who created it. (See the "logs" on the right side of the page to see who originally created a sentence.)* You can **add new sentences**.
5370
5471* The best approach is to search first to make sure the sentence is not already in the database.
5572
5673* Search with the sentence in quotes to find exact matches.* Another way is to go to the [Contribute](http://tatoeba.org/eng/contribute) page.* You can [write on the wall](http://tatoeba.org/eng/wall/index).
5774* You can [create a list](http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences_lists/index) and add sentences (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png)) to it.
5875* You can **add sentences to "public lists."**  (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png))* You can **add sentences to your favorites** (<a>![Add to favorites](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/favorite.png "Add to favorites")</a>) list attached to your profile.
5976* You can [send private messages](http://tatoeba.org/eng/private_messages/folder/Inbox) to other members.
6077* You can **record audio files**. <a name="trustedusers"></a>
6178
6279## Things Advanced Contributors Can Do
6380
6481* You can add tags.
6582* You can delete your own tags.
6683* You can link (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/link.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/link.png)) and unlink (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/unlink.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/unlink.png)) sentences. <a name="moderators"></a>
6784
6885## Things Corpus Maintainers Can Do
6986
7087* Read our blog entry on [Moderators in Tatoeba](http://blog.tatoeba.org/2010/05/moderators-in-tatoeba.html).
7188* You can also link any two sentences with this URL.
7289
7390* http://tatoeba.org/eng/links/add/aaaa/bbbb* You can delete (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/delete.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/delete.png)) sentences.
7491
7592* NOTE TO NEW MODERATORS: Tatoeba.org seems to prefer to keep any correct sentence and even a certain number of non-sentences.  Don't delete items that are unnatural-sounding or archaic without a second opinion by an experienced moderator.* You can delete anyone's tags, not just your own. (Since you can't tell which tags are yours and which are other people's, you need to be careful about what you delete.)

*   If you see something that seems strange or you don't understand, you can leave a comment and someone may explain it to you.
*   If you find things that are absolute nonsense or are not sentences, you can leave a comment alerting moderators that perhaps the item should be deleted.*   You can** proofread sentences** and "adopt" (![](http://tatoeba.org/img/adopt.png?1271500434)) sentences that you think are good.

*   Generally speaking, "owned" sentences are more likely to be error free.&nbsp; This is especially true if the "owner" of a sentence is not the same person who created it. (See the "logs" on the right side of the page to see who originally created a sentence.)*   You can **add new sentences**.

*   The best approach is to search first to make sure the sentence is not already in the database.

*   Search with the sentence in quotes to find exact matches.*   Another way is to go to the [Contribute](http://tatoeba.org/eng/contribute) page.*   You can [write on the wall](http://tatoeba.org/eng/wall/index).
*   You can [create a list](http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences_lists/index) and add sentences (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png)) to it.
*   You can **add sentences&nbsp;to "public lists."**&nbsp; (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/add_to_list.png))*   You can **add sentences to your favorites** (<a>![Add to favorites](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/favorite.png "Add to favorites")</a>) list attached to your profile.
*   You can [send private messages](http://tatoeba.org/eng/private_messages/folder/Inbox) to other members.
*   You can **record audio files**. <a name="trustedusers"></a> 

## Things Advanced Contributors Can Do

*   You can add tags.
*   You can delete your own tags.
*   You can link (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/link.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/link.png)) and unlink (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/unlink.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/unlink.png)) sentences. <a name="moderators"></a> 

## Things Corpus Maintainers Can Do

*   Read our blog entry on [Moderators in Tatoeba](http://blog.tatoeba.org/2010/05/moderators-in-tatoeba.html).
*   You can also link any two sentences with this URL.

*   http://tatoeba.org/eng/links/add/aaaa/bbbb*   You can delete (![http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/delete.png](http://flags.tatoeba.org/img/delete.png)) sentences.

*   NOTE TO NEW MODERATORS: Tatoeba.org seems to prefer to keep any correct sentence and even a certain number of non-sentences.&nbsp; Don't delete items that are unnatural-sounding or archaic without a second opinion by an experienced moderator.*   You can delete anyone's tags, not just your own. (Since you can't tell which tags are yours and which are other people's, you need to be careful about what you delete.)

## Things the Admin Can Do

*   The Admin can change a member's status: trusted_user, moderator, etc.
*   ... and much more.
