It's supposed to work because when you post a page you can add your e-mail to a (hidden) list and get a notification when that page is edited.

That's a good solution.

Gargaj:
That's also a possible solution and good in order to stop people from abusing the service several times.

Exactly. You'd have to be pretty subversive and low-under-the-radar to plant incorrect information. If it is non-verifiable or flat-out wrong it will get reversed quickly and easily.

The main problem is rogue dumbfucks who think your articles are "not notable" enough. Since this whole trainwreck has occurred, the existence of various factions have been brought to my attention. Groups such as http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Association_of_Inclusionist_Wikipedians.

radman1: It seems like somebody used a (bad) Babelfish-style translator program to translate some text into German.

RaD Man: Adok seems to be right, but there exist texts like that in some weird German accents which are real.
But otherwise -> ODERWISE is totally fucked up.

Attention!
All tourists and nontechnical look'n'peepers!
The computermachine is not for touching and taking away. Otherwise it's easy to [... I don't really know, maybe "you should run away very fast"]
The machine is [operated] only by experts.
Not for operating by fools. The rubberneck sightseers must keep their cotton picking hands in their pockets.

Wow, that was very hard, it wasn't real German, it wasn't real English, ... maybe dutch, who knows. ;)

Inside the non-German speaking countries, the mastering of the German orthography is considered a sign of a person being a dork.
Mastering Bate also has something to do with dorks.

i'm not judging people with no eye for humour, but in some cases it may cause awkward situations.

Inside the developed countries, consideringy anybody intelligent for a dork is considered primitive.
