Discussion with representatives of the German and Spanish translators' associations about the significance of Wikipedia contributions for authors and translators. How can an online encyclopedia, which is available in many European languages and in a total of 300 language versions worldwide, help to create a European public sphere/ a European knowledge of each other between the linguistic cultural areas? Where are the intersections?

Afterwards: small reception
