Re: I love Wikipedia and KDE, but ..

Well replace "German Wikipedia" by "I18n" and your message doesn't change. You belong to the group of people that think I am stupid cause I like my Computer talking in German to me and not in English. People that think translations of Computer topics are intrinsically evil cause there exist so many bad translations.

By the way did you know that this "software science thing" which is known in German by the very short and descriptive word "Informatik" (~ computer sciences/information technology...) has no real English equivalent? Strange, hum?

Why can't you be so relaxed on the Internet in case you see a "somewhat funny" German translation? In daily live you also most certainly don't use high standard German but your very local dialect with a very relaxed grammar.

Furthermore there are many people -and certainly not stupid people- that can express themselves much better in their own language. Do you want to silence these people for the sake of your "unified English Internet"? This would be a poor and small Internet. Luckily this is not the case.
