Although I don't see the need in most cases, Since in most wikis I have come access, The user language is usually the same as the content language. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

So on those websites, people using completely different language use the same site, so it's important to provide a language selector. While on Wikipedia, normally (I mean, except for those people doing crosswiki work) only people who know the content language come to the site and since the interface language defaults to the content language, it's safe to assume that people can understand the default interface language. However it can be useful for wikis with mixed contents, eg, http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Home . -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

Hack up some xx.example.com massive redirect nightmare? One can't always assume well the content has that problem too so there is no need to make the interface accessible. I mean I keep reading about the efforts to make things internationally accessible, e.g., http://blog.wikimedia.org/2012/01/09/end-of-sprint-6-translate-and-other-goodies/ but at the same time there is no path in ones language from a MediaWiki Main Page through the many steps to set up the correct preference... if indeed a given MediaWiki allows logging in in the first place. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

I.e., the content is just numbers or other language neutral items, so why can't the interface (MediaWiki) be language neutral from click 1? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
