Article translated to Swedish by me (http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin). Same username there as here, Zulu. Potential reward can be sent to: 1Ko9yVjydbqnMFFex1CYAP2krS76e7GNs5
Personally I found the English article to be quite lacking. I'm not sure you get a good understanding of how exactly Bitcoin actually work from reading it. It also contains a lot of repetitions. I also think the article needs to push the economic aspects a bit more and be a bit more self-critical. Right now it's mostly about the tech, which is, to most people, rather uninteresting.

Indonesian translation 99% finished, more explanation here : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/announceindonesian-wikipedia-translation-finished-4799, translating quite bit technical article to asian languages is quite hard so would be glad if someone donate other than those bounty reward.
Maybe there are other indonesian-speakers who want to donate an extra amount...?
Nobody is reviewing anything, I think these articles are really important to spread the word about Bitcoin.
I'm sorry. I'm currently travelling abroad. I'll review everything as soon as possible.

Finished the full translation of the spanish version. Someone else had done the first paragraph, maybe they are around.
Also, some sentences do not look natural, they need more adaptation to sound Spanish. There are also a good number of missing accents and other typos. Still needs more review (either by you or others).
I'll get around to it. Some sentences just need to be rewritten.

I have fixed some templates, categories, etc. It still needs some improvements:
- In the reference, translate all date strings (there are names of months in English).
- When references are in English, you have to add the attribute "idioma=inglés" to the cite template.

Sent 0.5 to the fund.
Donated 25.
Thanks niooron and theymos, I've donated 25.5 as well since I can see both of your transactions in the blockchain. Ironically enough, I can't see my own there--probably because it was mybitcoin->mybitcoin. Sent the 25.5 from the client instead to counter this. Still 24.5 to be matched!

Well, i fully translated Polish wikipedia page, but there wasn't a bounty at the time.
Thanks for adding me to the list, cw.
----------------
Also, i think that it would be good idea to make somebody more trusted such as theymos, Kiba, Gavin or Noagendamarket hold the money.
No offense there cw, but you just registered.

Actually, now i'm thinking more about this, i would rather wait till at least a couple people that feel confident in both languages approves my work, who knows, i might have made some big mistakes.... Also, i guess it would probably be fair to discount a couple BTC from my prize 'cause i keep finding typos on my translation even after having re-read it several times, these things have a way to sneak by unoticed somtimes....
Fair enough. Then we can wait a bit and give people (and yourself) to an opportunity to review it and get some reward if they make any substantial improvement. We can establish this as the standard procedure for further translations to other languages too.
I just donated 20 BTC. I will match further pledges made to this thread (and fulfilled) before end of day Sunday March 27, up to 50 BTC. So if anyone was on the hedge about donating, just donate at least a portion of the amount you were considering, and it will go twice as far.
Thank you, I'm excited to see this rolling

You did that? Alright. Sure, if you consider that to represent well your fraction of the work.
Ok! Should I pay now to 1FmvtS66LFh6ycrXDwKRQTexGJw4UWiqDX ?
