Also is it possible to do this without a user signing
in?
I was just about to ask about this as well. Is there (or could there be),
say, a magic URL string to append, like &lang=fr , to force the fr UI to be
displayed?
In a similar vein, is there a magic word that automatically returns the
current interface language code? The reason being to make a page like
a list of translatable messages, and instead of giving a list of every
possible translation language, using one link that would automagically
point to the user's language, e.g.: being able to write
[[Mediawiki:custommessage/{{LANGUAGECODE}}|Translate into your language]]
instead of having to have a list like [[Mediawiki:message/ja]], .../fr]],
.../es]], etc., or instructing users how to hack URLs.
(I know I can do it by hand--by making e.g. [[Mediawiki:lang]], and filling the
[[.../es]], [[.../fr]], etc. with the appropriate codes, and using {{int:lang}}
instead of the hypothetical magic word, but it seems wasteful since the
site already knows what's language it's serving pages in anyway, no...?)
