Just a sidenote Can't we really afford a real multilanguage wiki,
with subdomains for each language?
How much is the cost for that to be realized? In money and time...


Not much, just installing this extension bundle:

"Maintaining multilingual content in a wiki is a mess without the 
Translate extension, which is used by Wikimedia, KDE, translatewiki.net 
and other sites, where hundreds of interface translations are updated 
every day. With Localisation Update your users will always have the 
latest translations freshly out of the oven. The Clean Changes extension 
keeps your recent changes page uncluttered from translation activity and 
other clutter."


This would also make searching a more pleasant experience as we would be 
able to hide translated content from the results.


I have discussed this with Dennis many times over the years.

Don't know if I was clear enough...
Anyway the following links explain what I mean... It's referred to as 
"family of wikis"... just like www.wikipedia.org, with its various 
language subdomains.


https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12144303/how-to-make-a-mediawiki-site-multilingual

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family

Surely I'm not a wiki expert, but in my opinion this kind of wiki is 
much more clear and simple to use for all npl.


Bye :)
