It might also be neat to automatically detect the language a person's browser is using and display all links and text at www.wikipedia.org in the same language as the browser (with the ability to turn this off if needed). We are already going to have to translate all Foundation pages and localized Main Pages in several different languages. Therefore a user with a French browser will be greeted by an uber Main Page/Portal at www.wikipedia.org that is in French. All the links will be in French and all the Foundation pages that have French translations will be in French. Just some thoughts.
I think that's a bad idea. I personally hate automatic detection of settings. I want to set things myself if possible and desirable, but I don't want to turn off settings.
