:) http://wiki.smc.org.in is Malayalam site which using English interface.

And people are still terribly addicted to English while using Internet.

Is it possible for a site admin to set $wgFixMalayalamUnicode as false in
DefaultSettings.php for keeping user's contributions untouched (?). Popular
Windows tools and Mac tools for typing Malayalam using 5.1 encoding. So
copy-pasting title for linking will surely fail. I know default implementation
- Anjali Old Lipi - gives exactly same as in database. But somehow it is buggy
(lot of spelling mistakes) and people will eventually switch to some other font
given, for better display.
