However, I'd love to see/make/maintain another one for specifically updating translation tags, since translation is both one of the easiest ways to get started, but the easiest to "mess up" and overwrite (plus there are many pages in English that are updated for the latest version of VS, but have not been re-marked for translation, meaning their translated pages may be months or years out of date).

: Yeah, I'm with your first point completely (or one of those becomes the new "trusted" user group).
: With regards to [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:Translate/Configuration#User_rights translation rights], I'd be completely OK with setting up one of the "basic" categories to have both the <code>translate</code> and <code>translate-messagereview</code> userrights, and put <code>pagetranslation</code> and <code>translate-manage</code> behind "trusted" users. This would mean it's relatively easy to get started with actually translating content into another language, and harder to mark up pages for translation (which carries obviously the risk of breaking the pages in question). As a historical note, I think the original rationale was to make it really easy to mark up ''any'' page for translation to get the ball rolling, but I think that was also before seeing the potential downsides of, eh, messily-tagged pages.
: Also, certain high-traffic pages should probably also get page protected, such as the Main Page. -- [[User:Veerserif|Veerserif]] ([[User_talk:Veerserif|talk here]] or on Discord) 13:59, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
