This contest actually isn't much worth, is it? Apr 1

Is it just me or is it... weird, to say the least, that a text in (clearly) Brazilian Portuguese written by a Brazilian translator has won the English to European Portuguese pair contest? Shouldn't it be some kind of vetting process in all this?

Hi Manuel,
Thank you for your observation.
We've been trying to refine the vetting process with help from experienced members by moving entries to the corresponding variant. We apologize as some entries have not been placed in the correct place in this case.
