If it makes sense for en.wikipedia then it makes sense to translate it. And what about Wikibooks and Wiktionary?

If other 'pedias and other projects want to use that text or a translation, then I am certainly not about to object! But [[wp:en:]] needn't wait on them. Hence the justification of keeping to <wikiEN-L>, where something might happen. If you like it and want to suggest it to, say, Wikibooks, then by all means post a message to <textbook-L>!
(I hope that that clarifies what I meant.)
