Confirmed!
That's a great reflection Glen.
I see many people joining this and other contests even though their English is not up to par. I have no problem with that myself, instead, I find it interesting. Sometimes the passion can overcome any language deficiencies and that is something beautiful to witness. :)
But for the growth of STEEM, I think it will probably do more good if people have an option to compete in their own native language. It will help showcase that language on the platform.
