     I've seen links at the beginning of pages, probably because the one who
put it found it easier to look for them (instead of going a long way down
the page).  But if they're in "strange places", I'm not sure if their reason
is valid because what it counts is the rendered HTML page.  Wherever they're
put, they're always grouped inside the "in other languages" box.  So, I
don't think you have to care about keeping them in their original location
in the text.
