I think this is less true than you think. 

Even if this is a rarely needed tool, having it as part of e2fsprogs with a good man page means that the users who need it will be able to find it more easily.

I think that your English is likely better than my German.  I'm also always disappointed (but no longer surprised) by the poor quality of writing that native English speakers produce, so I don't think you have anything to worry about. 

Possibly the easiest way to start is to use Google translate to convert the German wiki into English, post it to your site, and then ask for help in fixing it up.

Exactly. Since you already have a wiki in German, automated translation will hopefully get it to the point where some English writer can fix it up.

Cheers, Andreas
