The Current Edition of the UZH Magazin, the University of Zurich's premier publication,  highlights DDIS project CrowdLang with a two page article (PDF can be found at page 18 of the PDF). The article explains how CrowdLang can be used to accomplish non-trivial tasks with a large number of crowdworkers.

The specific example chosen illustrates CrowdLang's capabilities by explaining how it can be used to translate textst within minutes from one langueg to another using monolingual crowdworkers only. As our experiments show the result is a good-quality translation that even spacielists say is 90% of the way to a professional translation.
