The wiki data - comes from the game files, so the wiki translations are already made (but sometimes incomplete - i.e. patch notes). If you'd like to help translating the Dota2 game itself, you can try enrolling with Steam Translation.
The stats section - comes from OpenDota. If you encounter any translation problems with this section, you can help them out here.
Several language don't have the full Patch notes in Dota 2's game files.
