This particular thread doesn't have an answer, but I'm going to see what I can do about this.  Now that the staging site is available from the internet, I want to get an admin from each wiki to test updates before we go to production.  The problem is that I don't know these languages at all, so it's difficult to see when a page or link looks incorrect.  Getting others to test in stage will be very helpful.
