You are free to propose it on de.admin.news.misc or de.admin.news.groups.
I see little chance of you succeeding, but you can try.

Of course, there is a technical solution to your problem. If you
seriously do not want to receive any of the de.answers postings, you
can unsubscribe to news.answers and subscribe to all of
{alt,comp,misc,rec,sci,soc}.answers. After all, these groups were
created so that people could select which hierarchy they wanted a FAQ
from. That way, you will never see a German - language posting again
(assuming you have also unsubscribed from soc.culture.austrian,
soc.culture.swiss and soc.culture.german.
As far as my understanding goes, news.answers was created to be a
repository of ALL periodic articles on Usenet, regardless of language.
This has been moderation policy for quite some time.
