Hi,
Clips are validated with votes. I know it. My question is:
How many votes are needed to validate a clip?
Thanks
We use a 2 out of 3 rule. Is two people say it’s good/bad, we go with that. This comes from some crowdsourcing research we did. For some reading on this see the following:
eventually it would make sens to include some flag if the original recording was played back by the recording person itself?!
i do it this way and for sure fix bugs this way… 
Can you rephrase that? I am not sure I understand what you mean.
When one uploads recordings, the speaker can choose to check the recording themselves, or not do that.

@mhenretty zeno is correct 
in the new UI the ‘check them yourself’ part is visually more optional -
but i think its a good think to check them yourself first… as this can catch some simple ‘wording’ mistakes or ‘to loud / distortion things’ or ’ to much background noise’

Is this a feature request for always automatically playing back what you just recorded?
would also be an option
i thought more in the direction to the original question -
if the speaker has listen to it use this as a vote that it is good?!
but i think that is a bad idea if only one additional vote would be needed then…
regarding
i have already done a feature request for a keyboard shortcut to start playing back all five records.
Seems like a very good idea to me. Maybe I’m a bit too much a perfectionist, but every time I have made voice recordings it has always needed a few “takes” to get something I was satisfied with. eg. A loud vehicle goes by, the telephone rings or some other unexpected sound happens. I hear myself saying “uh” more than I realized / pausing for a bit too long while I was thinking of what I was going to say making the phrase sound unnatural.
It’s somewhat amazing that when I speak I am not aware of there being anything wrong with what I said, but when I play it back it’s “Oh my gosh! Did I really say it that way?”

I would be interested to see what percentage of my own voice clips get validated, so as to provide feedback.
You can see on the dashboard. Look at mine for spanish.
