To update everyone, I have now sent out messages to Wikipedia (English,
Arabic, Catalan, French, Hindi, Swedish, Ukrainian); Wikisource (Catalan,
English, French); and Wikivoyage (English, French). Thank you everyone for
helping!

*Japanese and Polish* – I am waiting on a very minor change to the
translation. Once it is made I can send the message to Japanese and Polish
Wikipedias.

I would love to see the message translated into more languages, so it is
not too late to translate. As always, I am available if you need me to
clarify anything.


Cheers,
James Hare
