yahoogroupsWe've got some great taggers at work, but we still need far more to finish. If you're interested in seeing it get done, please consider tagging a tab if you haven't already. Joining the Discord server and following the instructions is the easiest way to do it, but you can also PM me here, message me on IRC's Hackint network (find me in #yahoosucks), or even message me on Reddit (Doranwen there as well).
If you can't tag a tab, maybe you can post the boost text from this post somewhere to get more eyes on it? Or just point people to this comm and say "hey, they could really use some help"? :)
If you know of anyone who might enjoy working on one of the smaller languages, that would be great as well. Many of the single tabs have only a handful of groups on them, making it a fairly easy and quick job for a native speaker. We're happy to help them get started!

Single tabs available:

All compilation tabs are still available as well.
Note: The "Unknown" groups are by and large not unknown as far as language goes, but they can't be tagged without looking at the actual messages. Most are clearly in English.
The spam tabs will also need to be looked at a little to confirm spam status, but many are in clear patterns and most of the groups won't need to be looked at once one or two are. I have no idea what language, if any, most of those are. My suspicion is that they were created just for email address harvesting, but we may never know for sure.
