Crowdsourcing and translation collaboration are two completely different translation approaches. Crowdsourcing involves enlisting a large group of people to complete translation work over the internet and is often used for large multi-language projects to reduce costs and accelerate the translation process. Contributors can be anyone from freelance translators to translation enthusiasts to subject-matter experts. Some crowdsourcing platforms are not curated and allow these users to keep their identity and qualifications anonymous, which can result in poor translation quality. In comparison, translation collaboration involves bringing together a team of carefully chosen professionals who you know and trust to work on a project.
