Wonderful idea Andy! I've made a few small edits to it, and I hope others will do the same... On the recruitment front, even today Roger managed to find someone willing to do a little bit of translation into Hindi!

to encourage and assist those volunteers willing to translate pages from English into other languages, who perhaps have never edited Wikipedia before, I have started a guidance page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Translate_us

mirroring the already-existing page for those translating '/into/ English:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Translate

Please feel free to improve or publicise it.

I'm very keen to work on recruiting more such translators, based on the work done as part of the Wright Challenge.
