Incidentally, a few weeks ago, Pietras1988 at the Polish Wikipedia 
<http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedysta:Pietras1988> contacted me 
(most likely via a Babelbox), asking me to translate a little Polish 
town called Kurów into Vietnamese. By the looks of the interwiki links 
on that article now, it looks like Pietras1988 contacted quite a few 
people. That town now has the distinction of being described in Gothic 
and Aramaic, of all languages.
