Chinese Wikipedia uses two different scripts - Simplified and
Traditional, and the software converts articles between them depending
on user preferences. Therefore, every user could write in either
Castilian or Andalusian, depending on their user preferences, and for
users of Andalusian, the Castilian articles would be converted to
match their own spelling, so everyone would read them with their own
scripting even if it was written with the other.
