whoops i forgot to include seventhly
seventhly point one, re: the latin traslation, could this be included as class work in wikiversity?
seventhly point two, i think that mediawiki should have some built in thingo to make translation and peer-review of translation easier for things such as trasnlatin between different language wikipedias ect. There are lots of people who might be able to roughly translate something (ie, fluent in one language, and half decent in another), but not up to the standard required for addition into wikipedia, however if collaborative traslation was allowed then this might be overcome. i dont know exactly how this would work, just an idea
seventhly point three, re: the idea of footnotes raised for latin translation, i think this could apply to lots of other things (and i know that footnotes have been debated before) but i would like to add to this debate by saying that these footnotes should act as another meta-page, like discussion, page history etc. if people are interested in this idea, ill post a more detailed RFC.
