I would propose adding a 'languages' tab to the user settings. That is
where users expect to set their UI preferences.
Let us tick boxes for as many 'additional languages' as we want.

Hoi,
At this moment, it seems like a secret that you need to add a #Babel
template in order to get to see labels in multiple languages. As a
consequence there are people that think that Wikidata is English only.
That is bad.
Wikidata does make use of the ULS or Universal Lannguage Selector. It
provides everybody with three languages they are likely to be interested in
based on things like geo location and stuff. They do research this quite
heavily so it is a reasonable guess.
Do you agree with me that it would be a good idea to use these three
languages as a default for new users and not logged in users. What I hope
we will achieve is more awareness of the multi lingual status of our
project.
Thanks,
