As a translator, I often want to see the page in English instead of my default language, Dutch. As an example, see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ubuntu-manual.org/?lang=en_US">http://ubuntu-manual.org/?lang=en_US</a>, where one can choose a language: <img src="cid:part1.08040201.08070208@zonnet.nl" alt=""> So, if more people agree that this is useful, perhaps someone can add it to help.ubuntu.com?

Currently, to access them, you need to manipulate Accept-Language request header in your browser. In Firefox, it can be done (1) by editing intl.accept_languages preference at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="about:config">about:config</a> page, (2) in Preferences->Content->Languages window or (3) by using an extension like Quick Locale Switcher. I think it's better practice for multi-language site to provide some control to select the language. It will make difference when a user is not sure he/she understands a sentence in his/her current language correctly and wants to consult the same page in another, or suspects a translation mistake. It will make checking translations for mistakes on-line faster and easier. </blockquote> </body> </html>
