Bug ID: 47979
Summary: [INTERLANG] Show language selector on missing article
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UniversalLanguageSelector

With the ULS integrated into the language links, nothing is shown on
non-existing pages.
ULS should integrated with [[MediaWiki:Noarticletext]] and
[[MediaWiki:Noarticletext-nopermission]] to offer the user the possibility to
go to the article in another language (e.g. by opening itself by default at the
bottom of the current text).
In the first implementation, it would be enough to let the user select a
language and then forward to that language with a normal search for the page
title (as en.wiki already does for interproject/sisterproject links without a
clear target).
In future implementations, it would look for existing articles in other
languages, either via Wikidata or Lucene (see existing code for bug 44420), and
provide tailored suggestions, including invites to translation.
Robin, do you remember more of the suggestions from the workshop
