The problem is that I have already populated my wiki with some italian pages and some english pages. I'd like to know if I can install language support and than put each page where I want (italian or english side). After it I'd like to translate each italian pages to english and eag english to italian.
You have two ways to choose from: 1. Host all the pages on one wiki, like on mediawiki.org. It is the simpliest way, but it has obvious disadvantages: you can’t choose a default interface language, etc. However, this will enable you to manage a wiki as a whole. This can be done with templates only, you don’t have to install or reconfigure anything. 2. Create two wiki installations, like en.wikipedia.org and it.wikipedia.org. They may share portions of configuration files to make some operations easier. However, each user will have to register twice, and you can’t move pages from one wiki to another as easy as in one wiki (you’ll have to export and import pages). More on this about http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Wiki_family. Also, there is an experimental http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Farmer, that you may want to try out.
