The idea of a wiki is to be a collaborative environment. If I start a
page, I put my first ideas there. Then I wait and see and expect other
people to come and edit and add. I also may later add some more things.
The idea is that the result starts to converge to something useful.

It would be a good idea if somebody knowledgeable about the situation
about FOSS4G in PHP added the information to the page
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Programming_Languages_Project

I remember (I'm going to skip checking this) that when I moved the
"project requests" from the separate (very small) page to the main page,
I also noticed that the "Languages project" link was not working. I
thought the page was removed and thus dropped the link. Right now
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Languages_Project gives an empty page
(not an non-existing page).

I'm not very sure about the aims of the "Languages project" as you
meant. There is a Like Minded Regional Organizations and International
Outreach page and the scope of the Translations of Press Release page
could perhaps be broadened to Translations of the foundation documents
page etc.

Cheers,

Ari
