1. Capitalization of language codes. In the "Other languages bar" its all caps, in the "Missing languages" its first letter upper case, second letter lower case. 2. "Missing languages" doesn't know about the special case of the English language which doesn't have en: in front. 3. How about using just one box "Other languages" and a button that toggles all vs. only existing pages. But not in a different box, but in the same box. 4. How about putting the language links in the box on the left side like on Wikipedia? Would keep the "meta" links more out of the way.
