Reason for closing:  Rejected

IMHO this should be rejected; don't you think, if we would accept machine-based translations, we would've written a script or similar to do this automatically?

The current state of machine-translations doesn't compare to human-based ones at all.

Also, AFAIK, we only accept translations made by native speakers so this doesn't qualify (as you stated you don't speak African).
