'''Note''': since this list is relatively new other wikipedias with a
none-latin alphabet might wish to translate it which would be a time
consuming task to do manually. For this reason [[User:Ævar Arnfjörð
Bjarmason|Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason]] has made a stupid little script in
[[Perl]] which shouldnt be that hard to tweak for any other language (
just modify the array and add some regxp's which work around how lame
perl is ). The code is located
[http://pig.berlios.de/cgi-bin/is.txt.pl here] and a sample output is
[http://pig.berlios.de/cgi-bin/is.pl here] (that script being
executed).

Yeah i know i know, put it on the talk page, but just think of all the
people that might miss this and start editing that huge list by hand.

Couldnt be bothered to rewrite this into mail form, but anyway if
someone here has yet to translate that list to a none-english,
none-italian and none-icelandic wikipedia they might find that tool
useful.

Cheers
