Brian,
Thank you for your cooperation. I'll tell this to Japanese contributers.

I have forwarded this message onto Wikinews-l. If you have any Japanese contributors that want to work on doing an article for en.wikinews I'd be delighted to help out, polish English, and put them on the right track.
Just tell them to drop me a mail or leave a note on my talk and dive in and start writing. I'll be stuck using Google or Babelfish to translate any Japanese sources (which always gives you some "interesting" turns of phrase).
We can then put that on our wikinewsreports blog which Google news picks up.
Oh, and as an aside I'm expecting a new report from David Shankbone in the next day or so. Yesterday the gaggle of technology journalists he's with met Shimon Perez, so I'm interested to see what - other than photos - we get from that.

Very cool !!!
Perhaps a little bit of promotion would be nice ? Mention in the Wikimedia Foundation news ? Press release ?
Fortunately, we don't promote Wikipedia in Japan. It became popular naturally in these years.
And please write a news about this prize.
Thanks,
Ant
