I don't understand what you mean. My native language is English. I did go from Dutch to English. It says that at the bottom of all the Dutch Wikipedia pages I translated. It is virtually always better, easier and obviously more accurate to translate into your native language.

It seems that you still have not read my reasonably good and concise definition of "language islands" on the main Dutch page, considering the amount of time you have spent commenting on those Dutch pages. Please read it. It has been there all long. How did you miss it? Have another look, right near the top. You can't miss it.

I agree that it may be better to move that Dutch Language Islands to a sub-page. But I can't do everything at once. Our new link to the Wiki just recently appeared.
