Thanks!

So, let me get this straight:

1. http://he.m.wikipedia.org/ already exists, but says "Homepage Not Yet
Configured"
2. If i translate 25 messages to Hebrew, it will just work? Or do i need to
open a Bugzilla ticket?
3. If it's just a matter of translating of translating 25 messages to
Hebrew, where do i start?
