More than happy to help with updates, but unfortunately not very 
multilingual (damn US schools). Is there anything someone with good 
communication skills and a fluency in English, but not other languages, 
can do?

More than happy to help with this, and have already run stats privately 
several times on the use on en.wiki, and sent them to checkuser-l at 
least once; no problem to do on the other projects, since it is a common 
log and I have access as an en.wiki checker. What stats would you like?

Can't really help with the spam filter, but more than happy to have a 
shot at the Board queue. Of course, I only know the things I've moved 
into it, as I'm not allowed to access it, but assuming there are no 
three-headed monsters hiding behind the "no permission" screen, I'll do 
what I can.
