Agreed here also, it is one of the core values of Wikipedia, multilingualism, and should be visible when present in an article. Like mentioned, people whose native language is not English could miss a lot from this hiding.

I must agree also. Same goes for anyone who's first language is not English, such as Spanish or German speakers. It could potentially be beneficial for the smaller Wikipedias.

Agreed. I was very troubled to find this. Imagine, for example, some IT professional whose first language is Hindi but is reading an article in English. He may not know that we have a Hindi Wikipedia. What if he'd be interested in contributing? What a shame that he didn't see that interwiki...

The English Wikipedia moved to Vector and the interlanguage links by

are hidden under the title "Languages".
This is a bad idea.
It is perfectly OK to let people hide the interlanguage links if they
don't
want clutter, but by default they should be shown. If by default they
aren't
shown, a lot of people may never know that they exist at all.
+1, if "Interaction" is opened by default, then "Languages" should be too.
