I can't get the internationalisation/language setting at kk:wikipedia to work properly. Every time I change&save the preference (I tried English, Dansk, and Deutsch), and then visit a random article, it displays the interface messages in the wiki's default language, and displays this popout message from the ULS sidebar/toolbox: "English дегеннен тіл өзгертілді" If I then visit the preferences page again, it displays a popout message saying "Language changed from қазақша". It seems to work properly at other wikis.
Same problem with other browsers? Do you know if others have experienced the same problem, by any chance?
There seem to be kk specific issues, see also bug 64452

Hmm user language setting seems completely ignored on content pages, even if you don't use ULS and set your language in Special:Preferences directly. When I set my user language to English, Special:Preferences speaks English, but other pages still speak kk (or one of its variant) in top-right links.
I suspect this is caused by the language converter.
Sub'ing and increasing/setting priority. Language Team: Assessing and reducing priority is fine, just let the bug know what you think as soon as you can.
I can confirm the problem. Browser error console only says: TypeError: mw.beta is undefined for function trackClick( el, name ) { mw.beta.trackClick( el, 'PersonalBar', { [...] }

[1] looks suspicious. No other language converters set $wgLanguageCode... [1] http://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fcore.git/38d7a2abf1a94b3f637f49177a5bc7b993087229/languages%2Fclasses%2FLanguageKk.php#L302
Can we try unsetting $wgLanguageCode and see if that fixes the problem? If not we can always put it back...
(In reply to This, that and the other (TTO) from comment #10) > unsetting i.e. removing the code that sets $wgLanguageCode

Leaving this open for now as it's not certain that the patch fixes the issue. We will be able to test on kkwiktionary on 25 November.
