Call me a centrist prick, but I've always thought it would be much
more benificial to learn a common language than it is to adapt content
to that language.

Either you stick with your home language and get a small Wikipedia
without much content, or you learn a common language with vastly more
content and fact-checking.  You not only loose out on Wikipedia, but a
vast majority of the world's knowlege and interaction.

Am I the only one that has a problem with having 100 Wikipedias?  Look
at the massive effort it takes to just maintain one decent English
Wikipedia article.  Then multiply that.  I see it as a massive
duplication of effort (a phrase I seem to use often around here...).
Maybe I'm just a self-centered American with a superiority complex.

Someone tell me I'm wrong (I'm serious, if I'm incorrect or being a
dick tell me)
