"Some kind folks have translated the article into..."

They are not doing it out of kindness, they are probably going to add ads and PageRank-siphoning links to the translation when you're not looking.

"WebDesignGeeks" was an outfit who used to pull this scam all the time to popular programming articles, and their "translations" were just the output of Google Translate.

Don't link to unchecked translations and don't let them be hosted on someone else's site.
