SUL accounts should have a list of languages the user can (is willing to) read. When he visits a wiki, if the wiki's preferred language matches one of those, use it. Else use the most similar language to the wiki preferred language from those that the user has. Some users will probably still want an override, though. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
