Spreading the word about Indonesian literature

       The Jakarta Globe reports on Using Technology to Preserve Indonesia's Literary History, looking into some of the efforts of the admirable Lontar Foundation in spreading the word about Indonesian literature (and many of the words of that literature itself, as they publish an excellent series of books in translation, several of which are under review at the complete review).
       So, for example:

While Lontar is currently looking for professional translators and editors willing to volunteer to pore over projects at a highly reduced pay rate, the foundation is also in search of literature-lovers looking to help get the word out about Indonesian writers through Wikipedia, which over the years has gone from being an object of ridicule to a sought-after source of reliable information.

       (Yeah, that 'at a highly reduced pay rate' is rough .....)
       And, yes:

As part of the project, the foundation is recruiting volunteers to help write biographies of Indonesian writers, poets and playwrights for Wikipedia. Lontar will provide prospective volunteers with a two-hour training session, access to research materials and support on how to properly write and contribute articles to Wikipedia in both Indonesian and English.

       I wonder how that will work out.
