    • There's one ambassador for Wikipedia Bahasa Indonesia and Wikipedia Bahasa Melayu (Malaysia) to bridge conversation between the two. With English Wikipedia I think some of the sysops have their own preffered contacts on official basis for technical reasonSerenity.id.
    • Languages in the Sunda-Sulawesi languages family which are used in local level (as opposed to Indonesian language in national level). Which single country have the most Wikipedias? (I'm guessing India, followed by China and Indonesia) Bennylin 21:55, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Do you translate a lot from other Wikipedias? Which ones?
    • Personally, I prefer to do research of my own for articles and take bits and pieces of information from English Wikipedia. The first explanatory line usually crucial in EN and mostly translated to Indonesia. However, I encourage other user to do the same, some user have a mindset that EN Wikipedia is correct for some reason. In some cases, if deeply discussed and not bias I kind of agree, but in most cases it's 11-12 with other languages as well) Serenity.id

    • Language institution for Bahasa Indonesia - one that I know of is: Pusat Bahasa, community about people interested in Bahasa Indonesia: I'm sure some exist, but, I neither have contact with them or know them personally, sometimes I read articles about terms (language related) and share them in Wikipedia online.
