Would it be possible to lift the limitation of 1-sitelink => 1-wikipage for wikis that host several languages?
In a way that: 1-sitelink + 1-language = 1-wikipage

Or are there other technical limitations?

Thanks
Micru

Can you name a specific case where you'd want this? Even for wikis
with several languages in one we can only link one page and have no
way to distinguish between them. Or am I missing something?
