I think this would be quite possible, though slightly tedious.  If 
there's no alternative, I may have to do this, or use TikiWiki... I'm 
going on a limb here, but I would think that the management of one 
tikiwiki would be easier than two mediawikis...

I've seen some work on interwiki links here... 
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Interwiki_links though it seems poorly 
explained.

It also briefly mentions interlanguage links.

Are languages handled through separate installs of mediawiki and then 
interwiki linked, or are the languages defined within the same wiki?  
Basically, could I define my own "language", and then allow only 
english pages to be viewed by all users?
