Yes Elisardo,

You can translate, send that and add local information (like where your events would take place, and the contact person).

I don't know if it relevant to you, but if you have wikimedia chapter in your country, I will recommend you to be in touch with the press contact before sending that...

To: Planning for WP 10th anniversary <wikix-l@lists.wikimedia.org>


All:

Pasted below is a simple draft media advisory we plan to share on
ten.wikipedia, as well as disseminate using a wire service.  This
isn't a press release, but a simple media "note" to make sure that
press understand that the 10 year birthday is approaching and
encourage them to start writing stories if they haven't yet.

We hope to have a draft release for you to use by Monday end of day.

Also, as mentioned before, we plan to use the hashtag #wp10 for our
social media posts.

Cheers,

Wikipedia to Celebrate 10th Birthday January 15, 2011

January 15, 2011 will mark a decade of Wikipedia.  Founded by Jimmy
Wales in 2001, Wikipedia has become the fifth most popular website in
the world with 410 million monthly readers (comScore, November 2010).
Just three years after its founding, Wikipedia reached 500,000
articles in 50 languages. Now, at 17 million articles in 270 languages
and growing, Wikipedia is the only top-ten website in the world that
is truly user-generated, supported and maintained. Over the last ten
years, hundreds of thousands of people have contributed more than one
billion edits to this vital resource.

To commemorate this historical milestone, people all over the world
are gathering at events -- at least five on every continent -- to
celebrate Wikipedia.  17 volunteer-planned events will be taking place
in India alone. We invite you to join volunteers in A Coruņa, Spain,
Bangalore, India, Skopje, Macedonia, London, England, Nairobi, Kenya
or any of the 150 (and counting) events all over the world :
