Recently I discovered Wizzley and I must say it is quite an interesting site. I published two articles and found out that working on this platform is very easy as all runs very smooth. Hope the site will gain on popularity.

Would love to be Wizzley even more international as there are many other languages out there except English, German and French. An unexplored niche and advantage over Squidoo and Hubpages that do not allow writing in other languages ;-)

Hi Peter - and welcome to Wizzley!  Smile 

A multi-lingual site would only confuse readers. Moreover, such a system would require a lot of additional staff, ideally located in their native countries. A logistical nightmare!  Surprised

Squidoo allows lenses in other languages than English, like this one http://www.squidoo.com/weekend-shopping-in-praag

I have German lenses as well. They disappear on Squidoo, tho.

No, English lenses are against their TOS as they can not control if they are spam or not. I know few users that lost all lenses because majority of them were written in foreign language.

@chefkeem Did Squidoo tell you that your German lenses would be deleted? I have three lenes in Dutch, they are still there. I'd better make a back-up copy before they disappear.

Squidoo didn't notify me, Marianne. I'm not sure what their current rules are, but if they want to delete my German lenses, that's ok with me. No big deal.  Smile
