[Wiki Loves Monuments] Language of the survey

[Lodewijk]

Hey Andrea,

Please feel free to spread the survey. We posted the survey to the talkpage
of every participant on commons, so assumed that they would get notified by
email thanks to that.

Please note that this survey is focused on participants though. A more
general organizational survey will follow in one/two weeks once the juries
are finished :)
