            Bug ID: 69704
           Summary: Special:PageMigration should have a navigation bar at
                    the top to switch between languages
           Product: MediaWiki extensions

The current way of obtaining input from the user at Special:PageMigration is to
ask for the page name and the language code for which old translations need to
be imported.

As a translation admin, it is useful if I would be aware of the languages in
which the translations exist for the page I am importing. This would help me in
switching to another language once I am done with importing for one language.

Possible implementations:

1. Navigation bar: This would show the languages in a way something similar to
how https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:Languages shows.

2. Drop-down: The language code input field could be a drop down list listing
only the language codes in which the translations are available.

Enhancements to the above proposals:

1. For option 1, once an import has been done, the language code/name change be
marked with a different color so that the user knows which languages are yet to
be imported. Or else, it could be removed from the template itself, which is
debatable.

Please comment on the above approaches so that we can take this forward.
