Note that Steve today has over 1.3M karma points in Translations (a sum of karma points would be around 650k, so I assume it's being doubled for recent contributions). Sebastian Bacher is the other "large" uploader (GNOME packager) who has uploaded around 11000 translation files.

How to best scale this to compare with:
 ∙ providing a suggestion, 3 points
 ∙ reviewing a suggestion, 3 points
 ∙ doing a translation (i.e. you are a reviewer), 3 points

I.e. if we assign a single point for a translation upload someone would have to do around 4000 translations to be comparable with Seb, or 7000 to be comparable to Steve. Still, we should note that these two guys are "worst" cases:
 vorian | 22426
 seb128 | 11344
 mvo | 6303
 cjwatson | 5553
 mdke | 5002
 doko | 2024
 pitti | 1970
 didrocks | 1807
 arnegoetje | 1761
 lure | 1597
 ember | 1579
 andreas-moog | 1422
 kees | 1120
 asac | 1090
 chrisccoulson | 930
 robert-ancell | 911
 ken-vandine | 766
 themuso | 718
 ccheney | 680
 jdstrand | 660

As an alternative, we can just stop giving out karma for these uploads except for templates. In general, I feel that's the right choice.
