Thank you very much, Amir!
I would like to know whether translations will be open in Translatewiki to make
it available and helpful for non-English speakers?
I would gladly translate it to a couple other languages! I also agree on the
views from Galder regarding the current non-existing noticeability of all these
tools for most wikipedians.
Salutacions/Kind regards
