           Summary: Quick link to set of *preferred* languages
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Internationalization
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


I am a Dutch speaker, and I use both the Dutch and English wikipedia. Many
times I look at a topic in both languages, by clicking on the Dutch/English
link in the language list on the left side. For a popular article, however,
this list is quite long, and it takes some time to look up the language in the
list.

SUGGESTION: 
Therefore, it would be nice if I could set in the user preference pane some
preferred languages (e.g. English, Dutch, French). 

This list can then be used in various ways to improve the navigation experience
of multilingual users:
- colourize the preferred  languages in the language list (so that I can find
them very quickly)
- or, always put (or repeat) these languages on top of the list
- provide a link to the language main pages in the header bar

BTW: this bug report is similar to bug 11267 ('User should be able to set
fallback language(s) in preferences') but not quite the same, so I decided to
file a new bug report.
