Information about Python in languages other than English

see also: native language pages at NewLanguagePage

Additionaly over just stating the link to your national python site you can also:

• test change to this page

• create a new page for your language as a WikiName (native words preferred)

• add the links at the end of the page to that page
• translate the comments to your language
• remove those links from this page
• these pages don't have to be simple link collections. Use them for announcements, celebrate your local talent etc. If you find the time, create a full blown entry page into the world of Python
