Hoi,
Consider in a multilingual mediawiki you can specify how many languages
you allow for. It can only be one. The issue is that the behaviour of
the screen is taken from the user preference, as well as from the
content. A RTL user prefers to have his navigation, tools and search
stuff on the right. The content needs to oriented based on the language
involved.
Thanks,
Gerard
