Hi, great to see sharing has no boundaries! I recently took over the project management of the coworking wiki. I'd love to see some japanese pages there! The goal is to make a central point of reference out of it, and if the wikipedia guys have pages in Japanese I don't see any reason why we can't.
I'd be really happy to talk about this with you. Let me know if it sounds interesting.
