[Search wiki] Non-english mini-articles

[Bani]

Not sure what is the best approach to get the default language, but
please leave it user configurable. A few months ago Google decided to
start prioritizing pages in "your" language and many people didn't
like that (in Google's case you need to click the "Google.com in
English" link at the main page to switch back, or else it keeps
redirecting you to the localized version, but that isn't very
intuitive since many people just wanted the search results in whatever
language is most relevant and not the entire thing in English).
