Ideas
I wonder in what ways MIT OCW-centric World University and School, like Wikipedia with MIT OCW, might be able to collaborate with both Sabhal Mòr Ostaig - http://www.smo.uhi.ac.uk/en/ - and - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabhal_M%C3%B2r_Ostaig - the college taught in Scottish Gaelic on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, and with MIT OCW Translated Courses - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/. (See the Sabhal Mòr Ostaig links below, too).
