1. German and French are over Japanese in the .ch portal because .CH
is the country code for Switzerland. - It makes sense to emphasize
languages used in Switzerland in the .CH portal.

The order is chosen with Western-American values. According to what I see on
my screen when I access wikipedia.ch, the Japanese and Greek languages are
not emphasised at all. The German language is emphasised more than Spanish.
The languages are not in alphabetic order. It is discriminatory and should
not be applied on wikipedia.org
