Hoi,
I am afraid you do not appreciate the importance of localisation. Yes, there
are thousands of messages and it is possible to have them all translated.
Tagalog is proof that a full localisation is possible. It was done in a
relatively short period of time and I am convinced that the Tagalog
Wikipedia will benefit as a consequence.
When "Crazy Lover" asks people to help with the localisation of Spanish, I
sympathise with his request. It is important that people help. I do not
understand the lack of awareness of why localisation is important. I truly
hope that many people will respond to CML's request because it will add an
important part to the Spanish language projects; the ability for people who
do not speak English to understand what is being asked of them in the User
Interface. The UI does not only consist of the core messages.
Thanks,
Gerard

I'm not sure what you're talking about. The
main MediaWiki messages
are 99.9% translated. Yes, there are many untranslated messages used
for certain extensions, but there are thousands and thousands of
messages there.

Hello:
During the last weeks i have been the principal translator of Spanish
Betawiki
Localization.
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Portal:Es
But now, i request someone help me to complete the translations of
Mediawiki
extensions (58% translated).
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Special:LanguageStats/es
If minor languages have completed the localization,
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Group_statistics
why a major natural language as Spanish , cannot complete them, above
all it has
registered 27 translators?
C.m.l.
