It is  imho wrong to call it languages in developing regions, it is not 
that  simple and the article cited is about Wikipedia in its African  
settings.



Actually, the article cited doesnt mention WiktionaryZ, which was the bulk  
of your email. I am talking in principle, when we refer to projects that need a 
 nudge, let's not just focus on African languages because it happens to be in 
 vogue. There are plenty of other important languages out there that also 
need a  gentle push so that they can reach their full potential.
