I find strange that it is used for showing news intended for one or other countries. The accept-language header should not be used to determine the locale [1] (or at least not be the sole way to do it). But if that config is ok for you, just use it. Just be aware of the semantics. 1- http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-accept-lang-locales > The odd > thing I asked myself was if my answers would have been different in > English...

We expected you to talk about both your Dutch and US experiences :) I guess there may be some bias there for multi-country uploaders. I took a look and we currently have 156 people claimng to have uploaded from several countries out of 1293 answers. In some cases they are claiming where it's only one: "it,other | Italia", "ar,other | Argentina", "nl,other | Nederland". In others I wonder how they managed to choose "Ukraine" (written just above "United States") fill "other" (written just below) and yet not see the United States checkbox: "ua,other | United States". Maybe they thought they were clicking "United States". :/ Other people may have thought we asked about the photos uploaded to Commons or the photos they had in their computers, instead of WLM ones: "ca,fr,de,it,es,ua,us,other | Grèce, DOM (France) , Turquie , Portugal" We also had three people marking the 35 countries (and another, 32). I am a bit skeptical of those. Can anyone translate «Dla wszystkich, które chciałyby skorzystać (co wiąże się z licencją cc by-sa)» ? > Great results!! How many responses did we get last year? After removing duplicates, 784. We will easily double that.
