Hi, just wanted to give people a heads up about language-sensitive
redirects on the
m.wikipedia.org/ (and
zero.wikipedia.org/) webroot:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Zero/Accept-Language_Aware_Redirec…
Dan Foy, Maryana, and I spoke on this stuff, and we thought it would be
best to see how this works in Wikipedia Zero land, and then if it works
well, continue dialog for the mobile web Wikipedia webroot afterward for
the non-Wikipedia Zero use case.
Usually we don't like to vary the cache on Accept-Language, but this is one
place where we're exploring the concept. It's possible to try to figure out
the language prefix in Varnish, but for now we're trying this as a pure
MediaWiki thing.
