I would like to encourage Simple English Wikipedia fans to blog about it ... particularly if you are non-English native speakers. The wiki is just not known. They might know their mother tongue Wikipedia and English one but not Simplewiki.
Last year I just mentioned to the Simple English Wikipedia just as one of easy-reading materials for Second Language Acquisition. In a social bookmark service popular in Japan, perhaps related to my blog entry, Simplewiki yielded over 50 bookmarks just one day. And if I recall correctly, one of Simple English Wikipedia virtue is for non-natives education and convenience? Could we work more aggressively for our potential readership?

Eh I'm sure this was discussed somewhere already... anyway, it brought a ton of new editors in, which was both good and bad (we desperately need more good editors, but not vandals!)
