[Foundation-l] Multilingual error messages

[Mark Ryan]

Well, I finally ran out of excuses to keep putting it off. So I've
created a page on meta (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Multilingual_error_messages ) to start
off the process of redesigning the Wikimedia server error messages. I
find it unacceptable that all wikis - regardless of their setup
language - receive the same English language message. We also need to
do things like remove the link to OpenFacts, because that site gets
overloaded within a few seconds of any Wikipedia downtime.

I welcome any comments whatsoever on this project.
