@SPQRobin: I recognize that area (translatewiki.net). We tried to do the Navajo translations there in October of 2009, but the admin(s) there inexplicably assumed bad faith on the part of our Navajo translator User:Seb az86556 (who has done an amazing job translating such difficult stuff into Navajo) and revoked his translator privileges, saying "If you want to leave it in English, leave it in English. You have now destroyed your reputation as a localiser. Languages are supposed to treated with respect." Nobody treats languages with more respect than User:Seb az86556 and I, and very few have the experience with foreign languages and translation that we have. I don’t have the names of the admin(s) that User:Seb az86556 was trying to work with at that time, but if he is still around, I don’t think we would want to open ourselves up to any more of that kind of abuse.
