Wow. I wonder if we could use the same syntax to specify the various spellings of English. Then finally users will no longer need to see a mix.
I guess this presupposes a nice way of choosing between en-us and en-gb in the wiki preferences: I wouldn't put much money on many people's browsers being set up to request the right variant (just think how many people still complain that they can't type "£", because Windows thinks they have a US keyboard!)
Zhengzhu is currently coding a UI in the user preferences which will allow Chinese users to select between Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. The same interface could be used for variants of any language.
