+When validation is performed, the original English articles are
+validated first, before any commands that generate the other files,
+and @command{make} exits with an error on the first encountered
+article.  This is done on purpose, to prevent the propagation of an
+eventual error in the markup of the original article to all
+translations.

+By contrast, validation of the translated @address@hidden is
+performed after it is generated and if @code{VCS=yes} the article will
+be committed in the repository.  The build will fail again and further
+processing of the remaining articles will not be performed, but this
+particular translation will be installed.  The translator has time
+until the next run to fix the error---usually by modifying the
+corresponding @address@hidden file.
