            Bug ID: 55664
           Summary: Preserve user language when calling API
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: GuidedTour
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected],

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

The API accepts a uselang parameter
(https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Parse#Parameters_2), but we are not passing
it.

This would allow using template-based i18n, until on-wiki i18n is fully
supported (e.g. with Gadgets 2.0).  This is particularly important for wiki
multi-language wikis such as Commons, which have existing i18n platforms such
as https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:LangSwitch (among others).  See
Rillke's comments at
