[Search wiki] A new list for the wiki

[emijrp]

I'm not about that. If I search "42", what languages will the search 
engine show? There are universal or untranslable strings: Wikipedia, The 
Rolling Stones, lorem ipsum, Albert Einstein. The result page must be 
written in the user language, or to be multilingual. This can be done by 
a subdomain division (de|en|es|fr).search.wikia.com, with the user 
language preferences (but this doesn't exist by now) or detecting the 
country of anonymous users by their IP adresses.

Regards,
