Indeed. We have a Universal Language Selector for 3rd

already. This one would be super-duper great. This is where Wikidata
can play its part as well!
As for images, we have already a PageImages extension
in all wikis,
and we have Wikidata, where item properties may point to images.
Also, there's Navigation popups[1] while with
api.php?action=query&prop=extracts you can get the text of page lede,
or N first sentences. To summarize, almost everything (or
eveerything) needed for this project is already available, so in a
couple hours of hacking it should be possible to hack the navpopups to
work in the way described in the proposal. I wonder how much reasearch
have the proposer done before making it public? Nevertheless, I'm not
saying that this proposal is not worth a SoC, however it should be
heavily revised based on input from this thread, then we could decide
if it has enough potential.
