Hello Ruimu,

I do not think in theory each wp entry should be a translation of the 
other languages. It is too ideal :-)
I think each should have its specificity, its special taste. Then we can 
inspire from the other versions to set each local version.

you are true that chinese npov should be the same than french or 
rwandese one of course. But that might be expressed differently.
