Hoi,
Try the word Niue, we have a selection of languages that know this word in
OmegaWiki. I agree with Muke that another interface can be found that will
do a better job. Even for this word you will not find 7000 languages,
obviously different scripts makes for smaller collections.
Thanks,
GerardM

Hoi,
If it becomes ugly after 15 languages, consider that there are something
like over 7000 languages out there. This is not taking into account
dialects
and other linguistic entities that would make for something like over
30.000.
Thanks,
GerardM

The other thing to think about is Category links, do you want to split
