Debian has quite a good quality process related to translation, if you got a review from one additional German, it is more than sufficient to tell the translation is good.

To go deeper into translation consistency across packages, it would require to know how to extract translation from every package in the distribution, and run queries. As far as I know, this doesn't exist and only the translator experience helps. But I would love to see such project!
