Hi Ryan
I have been editing Wikipedia in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Afrikaans etc for many years, but have never translated internal Wikipedia pages.
How do I go about picking an item for translation, and how would I know if someone else is not busy translating that specific item already?
Unfortunately, this is not possible. The usual wiki-tricks apply - check the histories of the pages and save often to avoid edit conflicts.
In the future the Translate extension may be enabled and this will make this process somewhat easier. See https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28021 .
