Surely we could tell if it was a malicious file
regardless of the language? If we couldn;t, I would
suggest we'd need another db to hold unknown articles
in. We could store them hoping that some day somebody
will be able to moderate them, but I'm not too sure
about displaying them straight away. They could be
blatant adverts, or something else we really will
violently not want on the resource.
