The website is a good start, especially the Solr tutorial page. Then there
are a couple of important wiki pages that would be great. For example,

   1. Tomcat installation page - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrTomcat
   2. Jetty - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrJetty
   3. Adding documents in XML -
   http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages
   4. DataImportHandler (this is a huge one, not everything may be needed)
   -- http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler
   5. Common Query parameters -
   http://wiki.apache.org/solr/CommonQueryParameters
   6. Simple facet params -
   http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SimpleFacetParameters
   7. Using the Solrj client - http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Solrj

We can also convert the comments in the example solrconfig.xml and
schema.xml to other languages as they contain very comprehensive and perhaps
the most up-to-date documentation.

I know this is a lot so please do not feel like everything here is needed :)

We should be able to pare things down quite a bit. This is also a good
opportunity to organize the documentation better and expand the tutorial to
make it more comprehensive. If we can do that, translating that one tutorial
should be good enough.
