The tips we write on WebD&D are always connected to a full article. I think if someone does not understand English, then those articles would also have to be fully translated.

One of the most important pieces of advice I give to novice web designers is that they learn the language. English is the official language of the internet, so you can’t really expect to learn much if you’re unable to communicate.

I think WD&D should be translated to more languages, in order to provide some basic guidelines for designers worldwide. After 9-year experience in this, the first thing that comes to my mind is that people start off wrong. If they’re very young, they learn design from unreliable sites, if they’re oldschool they might have some difficulties making a switch to today’s standards…et cetera.
