I have many students that speak Pashto/Pushto. This is not one of the available languages at the moment. Is it possible to add this language to the translation list? It would be most welcome.
Please let me know how seriously this request is being taken and what the next steps will be.

The maps and some of the information do not generate citations, so the students cannot cite the maps or the fun info on the main page.
