I just had another thought as for a way to provide more native-language help in Pd-extended. In the Help menu is the "Start Here!" item which takes you to http://puredata.info/docs/StartHere. I've made it possible to set that URL in the translation, so there can be http://puredata.info/docs/PourCommencer and http://puredata.info/docs/%E3%81%93%E3%81%93%E3%81%8B%E3%82%89%E5%A7%8B%E3%8... etc. That page is a short wiki page to tell people where they can get more help for learning Pd in their native language.
Also, that link could point to any webpage, it doesn't need to be puredata.info. But it should be a community oriented site where people can edit the page to improve it, IMHO.
To change the URL in your language, edit the translation: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/puredata/resource/pd-extended/

You should update that page before encouraging translation. Otherwise the translators will include links to unmaintained projects like the Pd FLOSS Manual as has already happened.
Which link do you think should be removed? There isn't an official maintainer to the FLOSS Manuals english book, but its still quite good.
