How many of these have been reviewed by a native speaker?

My translation was reviewed & corrected many times by polish wikipedia moderators themselves, just see the edit history:

I don't even know if any norwegians other than me are reading this thread; however, the article has been left alone by the wikipedia patrollers through 7 revisions so far since I first created it almost a month ago, indicating it's in decent shape linguistically. As far as the technical soundness goes, the article is, as topi points out, a direct translation from the english one, so the errors are very few or none. I'll see if I can find someone to check the article. Meanwhile:

Hvis du er norsk og leser dette hadde det vært hyggelig om du ville sett over: http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin

I have reviewed carlerha's norwegian wiki-article, and it is accurate.

Appreciate it, cw!  I will be starting a new thread so that I can update the OP.  Before I do, can we get a conclusive list on as-yet-unpaid bounties?

I see:
Finnish by Topi,
Italian by Dusty,
Bulgarian by Smothier,
Norwegian by carlerha/Calle
and an offer by jcbrand to do Afrikaans.

How many of these have been reviewed by a native speaker?  I can review for structure/appearance but don't speak these five languages.

Also, I would like to give someone else access to the account in addition to myself--in case I were to be hit by a bus, etc.  Theymos is tied for second-highest donor but also has a lot on his plate.  da2ce7, are you interested?

I'm sorry guys. I'm really busy with RealLife(tm). I've given credentials for the escrow mybitcoin.com to eMansipater so he can manage the bounty or, eventually, give access to other trusted parties.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

cw is not responding to my private messages, despite having visited the forum recently.  Does anyone have non-forum contact info for cw?  Perhaps through github?

It seems that everybody forgot about my Polish translation...
I'm afraid it seems the OP left his duties as a vault manager. Oh well, I'm not making a virtue of necessity though - I'm happy to help out anyway  Smiley Still sort of rude regarding those who chipped in...

Hey all, I'm new to this thing.

A friend introduced me to this system here and seeing as I know Bulgarian aswell as English, I want to ask how much would English to Bulgarian translations be worth here?

Edit: I am currently translating the Bitcoin page in Bulgarian,feel free to check on my progress.

I am nearly done with this,please share your opinions and also please no bad comments as I am VERY new to wikipedia so I may have some errors here and there.

Edit 2: I am done, please use the adress above to check and see if everything checks out

I'm sorry If I've made any mistakes and stuff which show as errors or don't appear, this is my very first time using Wikipedia to edin/create an article so its understandable that I wont be perfect with no experience whatsoever

what if someone did a translation and wanted to remain anonymous, but still collect the reward?

I did the Italian translation: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin .

I repost it just because it has been asked: while I would surely enjoy a bounty I'm already well happy to have been useful in some practical way!

People that didn't get a reward for your work, please post a list with your names and addresses here; if after a month you still haven't been rewarded i'll see how many you are and see if it's worth splitting a part of what i got among you.

I did a finnish translation two weeks ago, but haven't seen any bounty. But for me, it's more important to do my own contribution to the common good
The same for me: I haven't received even 0.01 BTC but I did the translation in Italian anyway, bitcoin rulez Cheesy

I would also like to know whether the bounty is still running. I'd be happy to make an Afrikaans version.

No idea whether or not there's anybody paying bounties for translations anymore. I did a finnish translation two weeks ago, but haven't seen any bounty. But for me, it's more important to do my own contribution to the common good (i.e. spread the bitcoin gospel Smiley and an actual bounty would just be the icing on the cake Smiley

just my 0.02 cents.

Ok, the wikipedia italian page is now complete.

If someone adds new sections to the English page please tell us here so we can update the page in other languages too, thanks.

I had no reply  Angry

Anyway wikipedia page is too much needed, so I started it anyway, even if it was my first wikipedia page and soo much stuff to learn (syntax, templates, references, etc).

Actual work in progress: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin
I plan to complete it soon.

Of course tips are very welcome  Cheesy
