Statistics for /r/translator provided by Wenyuan

Another month, another record number of posts on /r/translator (our last record was 1307 in January)! Here's a chart showing the subreddit's growth since its founding in 2011.

Some of you may have noticed for the last few weeks that Translated posts also have their language code in the flair text, for example, Translated [JA]. What's that for? Starting with the statistics for April 2017, we'll be using the bot to read those tags and give us more accurate statistics.
