yes, those are good ones to start with. I will start going through this week as well, and updating articles as I go. I'll post on this list as well as on the discussion pages when I think an article is ready to be translated. Of course, this won't stop others coming along and making more updates, but that is the nature of Wikis! I think the English versions and the translations will diverge somewhat as time goes on, but that's ok, as long as they still teach the same good stuff.
