Look over w:Naruto for another language, the "Create a new wiki" button is at the top of the page.

This is the "English wiki about Naruto". Most of the people here don't fluently speak any language other than English. Unlike Wikipedia here on Wikia different language wiki normally have no direct connection to each other, someone starts a wiki in English, another starts a wiki in German, and so on... Sure a wiki might go and add some interlanguage links back to their wiki, but in general each wiki is built up and sustained by it's own community, the language barrier keeps most interaction far apart. There is no real support for multilingual wiki, and it would just cause a headache anyways. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) ^(talk) Aug 22, 2009 _@ 14:19 ^(UTC)

It is not impossible, but if all this has to be translated to another language, it will take a lot of work, from a lot of people. Still i would like to see narutopedia in bulgarian (my naitive langage, i am from bulgaria) but there is to much to be done. I do not mind to translate some materials, but considering the overal about of data here, it is impossible for one man to do it all.
