## What blocking it costs you

Multilingual pages stop feeding a translation corpus. If your site is translated, being in it is usually a benefit.

## Ask this page a question, with one GET

A question about this page, answered by a call you can make right now — no key, no account, no JSON-RPC, nothing to assemble. The query string is already filled in with this page's own subject.

- **How do I prove a request really is Linguee Bot?**  
  `curl -s 'https://www.pathwren.workers.dev/tools/verification-methods?crawler=linguee-bot&s=client-dossiers'`  
  The verification method its operator actually publishes — published IP ranges, reverse DNS, or nothing at all — and the mirror of it on this host.

Every parameter above is a value the endpoint reads, not an address it visits: nothing is fetched on your behalf. Called without any parameter, each endpoint returns its own specification instead of an error.
