How to get started translating I wonder if you could give me some advice  Id really like to start expanding stubs that are part of wikiproject Japan by translating from Japanese wikipedia but Im not sure what the proper procedures are for doing so  I dont want to get stuck in before I really know what Im doing  Im particularly worried about causing disharmony by not communicating clearly with other people involved in the project about what Im doing  for example how do I know that nobody else is translating a particular article  Should I be concerned if the article I am translating from has few references  Any general advice would be most appreciated
