I'd like to add that other Wikipedias are crucial for development of English 
Wikipedia. I don't have numbers to support it, but I am quite confident that 
there are more articles which exist only on one or a few non-English 
Wikipedias than there are articles on English Wikipedia. Eventually, they 
will get translated to English.
