Description Liangent 2013-06-07 09:07:42 UTC
One more "write" action.
Comment 1 Niklas Laxström 2013-06-07 09:11:14 UTC
Given that the user will get a popup to switch back easily, and that changing the language (afaict) is just an annoyance for the user, I'm not convinced.
Comment 2 Liangent 2013-06-07 09:17:06 UTC
I just think it may be annoying if someone put a bunch of <img src="http://xx.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?setlang=bo"> on some 3rd party page after ULS gets deployed widely (then users have to change them back manually one by one).
Comment 3 Siebrand Mazeland 2013-06-10 06:14:21 UTC
Closing per comment 1. This feature request will not be implemented, as it severely decreases user experience.
