I think we should do this ASAP, because the issues are only going to get harder. But the main issue, Timwi, is social -- there are certainly cases where two different people have the same username but in different languages.

Stuff like single sign on
That is not possible anymore. It would be total chaos.
I'm pretty confused at this assessment of yours.
All it would take to achieve this would be to:
- Add a field to the 'cur' and 'old' tables (or perhaps even just the
'cur' table) to specify what language an article is in.
- Move all the articles from all languages into one database.
- Adapt code accordingly.
Should be doable (given adequate manpower).
