New AbuseFilter: Distant translations
[edit]I've seen some edits to translation pages that are obviously not translations because they are very distant in size, and have warned the users. I think this would be better prevented by an abuse filter. This filter would prevent edits where the total length of the replaced lines is less than 75% or more than 150% of what it replaced, which is what the edits I warned users about had in common.
Example edits: Special:Diff/28565369 Special:Diff/28564157
