Have an option to have an email sent if someone changes the sentence that I translated.

Feature Request.

Based on Odexed's request on the Wall (2016-06-30)

If somebody changes his sentence (except for the punctuation), and his sentence is older than my translation (with a less number), I get an e-mail notification (this option can also be turned off in the settings). Many people don't leave comments when they change their sentences.

Perhaps the message could be something similar to one of these comments.

Example 1

The English has been corrected. Perhaps this affects your translation.

FROM:
Tom doesn't like the Irish coffee.
TO:
Tom doesn't like Irish coffee.

Example 2

The English has been corrected to the following.

Tom has won three races in a row.

Maybe this affects your translation.

Example 3

I've corrected a typo. Please make sure your sentence still matches the English.

NOW:

Do you want to know why I'm here?

Example 4

An English typo has been corrected. There is a slight chance this affects your translation.

FROM:

TO:
You're no longer a spring chicken.

One additional matter that would need to be considered is that sometimes people other than the authors of the sentences have done the linking of translations. This means that there is a chance that even when a younger sentence (with a higher sentence number) is changed it could affect whether the translations match, so perhaps a message would need to be sent regardless of the age of the sentence that got changed.

It would take a little more programming, but you could probably make it so that changes to a younger sentence would only trigger a message if the linking wasn't done by its author.
