I had a chat about this on #moin-dev yesterday evening. The Moin multilang 
implementation works as wikifarms, so that you have en.wiki.tld, de.wiki.tld 
etc. and it links the same pages in those wikis together. This also means 
that you need to have the same page names in all wikis, so they can't be 
localized.

An example of Moin multilang is at http://en.test.wikiwikiweb.de/TestWiki (de, 
en, fr in the top menu). It seems this is not the best option for Fedora 
Wiki, what do you think?

I actually like the examples you have set up. It seems Wikipedia uses bots to 
manage the lists of translations, maybe same kind of bots could be written 
for Moin?
