Is there a better way to get at more items in the "In Other Languages" section than to change the interface language with ?setlang= ?
I had an item I wanted to give the name in Italian for (it was mentioned in the English Wikipedia article) and I discovered that the only way I could find to get access to the form field for Italian name was to change Wikidata to Italian.
I didn't see anything immediately upon Googling.
Thank you, Derric Atzrott
You can add a babel template to your user page, see https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User_talk:Sjoerddebruin#Babel ;)

It was a one off thing though. I don't actually know Italian. Just in this one case I wanted to add something that happened to be in Italian. I was hoping there might be some hotkey that I just didn't happen to know about, or something similar.
I'll go ahead and file a bug report to see if we can't add something below the "In Other Languages" section where you can just type in a language code to get it to show that language's fields as well on that page.

No need to file a bug. We'll handle this as part of the new user interface design currently being worked on.

Is there a mockup of the interface for this particular task?
Can't find any for editing tasks.

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:UI_redesign_input The second mock-up shows the header in expanded mode.

Will there be mockups for adding/editing all the other stuff we have in wikidata?
For example: it is actually not possible to choose a globe for a coordinate via the user interface. Btw: there are lots of coordinates not on Q2(earth) in wikidata (and some coordinates without any globe)

We'll be tackling that too but not yet.
