If you got plenty of time, you may want to start reading the original thread [1].
In short: a list of the languages a wikipedia exists for (read from [2]). For each language you'll get a list of all countries in the osm-database and their native name (default name), their name how it would be read in the selected language (translated name). You can then mark this translation as ok, if it's correct for this language, or to edit it via josm/potlatch if it isn't. In the languages-list you see the percentage of all countries marked as ok for this language. Those translations will later be used for localized maps on wikipedia (see [3] for an old preview with many missing translations).
