I much appreciate the effort.  And it is possible that the Danish
localisation is in better shape than last time I checked (which was a
little over a year ago).

I'd love if the Danish Wikipedia was close or en par with the English
Wikipedia.  Not in quantity, but in quality.  At least on the Danish
specific articles.  Unfortunately, there is a lack of motivation from
potential Danish editors (like myself).

I guess I am too busy maintaining my own wiki as well.  Maybe a choice
to attract editors would be similar to that of the Swedish and
Norwegian wikis.  That, and I'd like to see more appreciation of the
Danish language from the Danes themselves.  I hear Dutch is under the
same criticism from the Dutch themselves.
