Italian localisation of WoW required

It seems like an Italian localisation of WoW is required. Through the LFG system in the Ruin battlegroup it's becoming more and more obvious that a large portion of players from the Italian realm Hakkar, appear to lack an understanding of fundamental game mechanics. This can only be contributed to the lack of an Italian localisation in my opinion, and would be similar to for example LFG with strictly French or German realms.

So my appeal to Blizzard, please make an Italian localisation for our dear mates in the south.

Q u o t e:
what I don't understand is why there is an italian localisation for starcraft and diablo (don't remember exactly which version of those two games since I don't play them) but not for WoW... hasn't WoW a lot more players than the other two games? How can it be, economically speaking, less advantagious making an italian localisation for WoW too?
It is true that we are supporting both Italian and Polish languages for StarCraft II. Even here on the community team we have now been enhanced by the addition of new Italian and Polish staff members. However, both Polish and Italian WoW players remain supported by our "English" WoW realms.
