That's what I mean, by "not very good practice", I mean it is *very* rude
for all of us to assume that people follow rules/guidelines in a language
that they do not necessarily speak. The guidelines make it seem like they
apply to all Wikimedia channels in all languages, thus they should be
written in as many langauges as possible. And if I were asking solely for a
translation, I would have just put the template on the page. I want to know
what how people feel about translating the guidelins, so I posted here.

It wouldn't take long at all to translate, but is it really necessary?
Does anyone read this page? Or are you asking for translation because this
page is the "official rulebook" of the IRC channels, and as such would need
translation to serve as a reference and reminder?

I noticed today that the IRC Guidelines (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_guidelines ) weren't translated into
other languages even though they supposedly apply to all. This isn't very
good practice. Do you think it should be translated?
This also applis to the #wikipedia guidelines, but it looks someone beat
me to that! (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC_guidelines/wikipedia)
However, I'm not sure if they are done arguing on that page, so it may be
best to wait a little bit before you being translating.
Thanks, and looking forward to comments!
