mw.wikibase.label() takes into account the user's default language, and does not change language when ?uselang=xx is added to the URL. This is
I see two possible solutions:
- change the behavior of mw.wikibase.label() so that it takes into account ?uselang
- provide a Lua function that retrieves the user's language using the same criteria as mw.wikibase.label() so that we can adapt Lua modules to fix the ?uselang= issue locally.
Apparently ParserOptions::getUser()->getOption( 'language' ) doesn't provide the right language here, only ParserOptions::getUserLang() does. We use the former as an optimization in Scribunto_LuaWikibaseLibrary::getLanguage and Scribunto_LuaWikibaseEntityLibrary::getLanguage to only split the parser cache when actually needed.
As far as I see, we only call getLanguage when a Lua function is called anyway, so this hack probably doesn't save us much, so I suggest dropping it.
