OK, you mean when you get TO the wiki Documenation page. I tried this just
now also -- to ES. As you say, It does change the contents of the wiki page
but not the left menu -- you are correct. I am not a Media Wiki guru, but I
would image that side menu template needs some function applied to it on a
language change to make this happen.

Maybe a fun project for a volunteer to investigate.
