I'm re-opening this, because I believe it is a different feature-request from that given in T111913: [Story] In the "other projects" sidebar on multilingual wikis, link to wikis in the user language <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T111913>. This task is asking to solve the use-case of: - As a user at [language-specific project, e.g. French Wikipedia], with my language-preference set to the local language, and looking at the Main Page (e.g. w:fr:Accueil_principal <https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikip%C3%A9dia:Accueil_principal>) - When I click on the link to Commons or MediaWiki in the "In other projects" section of the sidebar - I expect to be taken to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accueil and to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki (note that `Special:MyLanguage/` doesn't work as expected on Commons) - But it currently sends me to the English version Whereas the other task is asking: - As a user already at a multilingual wiki (e.g. Commons) - When I click on the link to a language-specific project (e.g. Wikipedia) - I expect to be taken to [the language edition that is set in my local/global preferences] - But it currently either: - doesn't have most of the projects listed (see e.g. https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accueil ) - or goes to the English version IIUC (Iamnotadev!), both problems are essentially caused: 1. because (e.g.) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q21445585 ( French main page of a multilingual-project) is distinct from https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5296 (Wikimedia Project Main Page), 2. and possibly because some of the multilingual projects currently use different translation systems (i.e. Extension:Translate (used at Wikidata) --versus-- manually-created-&-synced-pages/subpages (used at Commons & Wikispecies)) but the tasks are asking for different things, so either they need to be mentioned in the same task description, or in two different tasks.
