Translation requests links

I might take up occasional requests outside my usual area of interest. Looks like the requests get channeled in different places.

• Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English
• Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Hotlist of Mythology & Folklore
• Wikipedia:Requested articles/Japan above, or,
• Category:Articles needing translation from Japanese Wikipedia

Method to discover other lists like this: click on a red link (including the search result "you may create (red link).."), go to toolbox] "What links here". The Wikipedia:Translation page is not very illuminating as to how you go about requesting. Other languages like fr seems to have a nice bureaucratic system in place, that keeps tab on %completion after translating, proofing, etc. phases.
