It would be good to extend the research of War of 1812 to non-English Wikipedias.
Ive had a quick look and it is surprising how many of the articles pretty good, but none are very good. I think that there is a depth level at which non-English writers say I could easily add more, but the [non-English] article is good enough; if you want more detail youll almost certainly know English language and should go read the English article. My time is better spent expanding another [non-English] article that isnt yet good enough.

I have never hear of (and I doubt very much the existence of) Russian wikipedians who would translate the articles on War of 1812 from English Wikipedia rather than to write them themselves. (I am talking now about the events which happened in Europe; others may be less known, and thus more attractive for translation).
