I'll be talking to the BBC tomorrow about

interested in stories about Wikipedia outside of US/Europe.
Of the top 20 languages, only Chinese and Japanese are non-European.
However, if anyone can point me to some interesting stories regarding
users in developing countries or how Wikipedia is used in unusual

Maybe not excactly what you want, but on de: we have a group of
Swiss pupils (age 15-17) who wrote a lot about the small island-country of
Nauru making it to the maybe best described country in Wikipedia.
They also start to translate their articles to English.
