The key word is "Toolkit". The formatting anomalies, like the strange 
errors in OCR, should be expected by those using machine translations.  
I have no objection to "pull" translations; these suggest that someone 
*in the target project* considered the topic worth including at the 
current stage of the project. Speedy deleting these articles when they 
first appear would be too hasty.  The fixup within a reasonable time 
after the machine translation is added is an important part of the 
contribution.
