Good question. Yes, it will: pywikipediabot asks for the english translation
of the wiki:

def wantedcategories_address(self, code, limit=500):
     return "%s?title=%s:wantedcategories&limit=%d&useskin=monobook*
&uselang=en*" % (self.path(code), self.special_namespace_url(code), limit)

The uselang=en trick is a good one to remember - for instance if you want to
find the edit button on a wiki in a language you don't understand. You can
add it to any url:

http://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Etusivu?uselang=en
or
http://fi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Etusivu&action=history&uselang=en
