Ah, I think we have to sync on this :-)

No sure why this is bad. This is just the translations which are not maintained 
on Gitlab.
An even if they were - we (the developers) have those files already downloaded 
and locally available. If they are not available online any more, we can simply 
set up a repo containing them (or use a subdir in the wget2 repo).

So let's assume Gitlab is suddenly down forever and the wiki pages are not 
available any more. If we still have them on disk from the previous "git pull", 
no information is lost. We (the developers) would have a chat and the one with 
the latest / current wiki data would push it to the new git hoster of our 
choice.

Does this make sense ?
