Hi, the Japanese translation is already "ready".
But
Why don't the translated notices link to each language's mainpage (e.g.
[[Mainpage/ja]])?

Hi everyone,
So we're about a week away from the anniversary, and there more than 275 events
listed on
ten.wikipedia.org. Whether you're an informal meet-up of a dozen people or a
conference for hundreds led by a chapter, we're going to use this week to run
CentralNotice banners on Wikimedia sites to remind readers of the anniversary and promote
your activities. (I'm going to repeat the following details on the tenwiki Village
Pump if you prefer to read it there.)
We're currently running a banner on English Wikipedia that links directly to tenwiki
and is awaiting further translation. (We will also be translating the Main Page of tenwiki
further. Let me know if you want to help with both those translation projects.) The
priority here is threefold:
1. Educate people about the 10th anniversary in general.
2. Link to a comprehensive list of online and offline events so that people can choose
the event that interests them.
3. Show people the enormously diverse number of things our movement is doing to
celebrate.
Considering that we're only running the 10th anniversary messages for a week, we did
not plan for a large number of different banner designs. However, if you're an
organizing group that would like to run your own banner design or directly link to your
event in your country, that is definitely welcome contingent on a few basic requirements:
1. Just to state the obvious, the banner needs to be localized fully and will only run
for visitors in your country who are on the wiki the banner is localized for.
2. The banner will need to mention both the 10th anniversary (remember, most people have
no idea it's happening) and that there are events to join. A banner that merely
mentions a single party or other kind of event without context would fail to do justice to
the anniversary and the other volunteers who have worked hard to make it memorable.
3. The banner can link to your event's
ten.wikipedia.org page or a landing page
elsewhere. To link directly to a page off tenwiki, that page needs to clearly mention and
link back to the other events on tenwiki (so that people don't end up at a dead end if
they don't find what they're looking for). If there are multiple events happening
in your country, then whatever page the banner links needs to mention all of them.
4. You need to submit this banner directly to me so that we don't miss any
submissions. If you want to put it on-wiki first and simply link to it in your email,
that's great.
If you're still with me here, thanks for reading, and thanks for everything
you're doing to make the 10th anniversary great. If you have questions, please let me
know.
