Comment (by evarlese):

 From the original description:
 > every original should have a link to a specific forum topic to discuss
 its translation to the locale

 I'm curious if this means that every string, regardless of status, will
 have its own thread in the forums? Or will a thread only be created for
 strings with feedback? In either case, one thing to consider is creating a
 good practice or process for managing spam, even if that means just
 checking that we can use Akismet or something along those lines
 considering the sheer number of threads that we'll be generating. (Which
 is also exciting, I should add!)

 This may be a question for @ocean90, but I wonder if there is a way to
 leverage statuses in GlotPress, as well. Right now, when a translator gets
 feedback, the original string needs to be manually rejected (either by the
 translator or the editor) after providing a new suggestion
 ([https://github.com/GlotPress/GlotPress-WP/issues/889 related GitHub
 issue]). Given the possibility, it may be useful to consider a workflow
 where strings can be edited after receiving feedback, without needing to
 reject the original.
