I noticed on the Wiki it says the following:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Essen_Developers_Workshop/Results

> Discussion about how to work with multiple languages in the Wiki.
> No resolution; multiple Wikis would be nice but we'd have to find

Can we look at implementing OpenID on the wikis?
http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/OpenID/

Then the problem goes away. We could also do OpenID on the rest of Open
Street Map, and/or we could make OpenStreetMap an OpenID provider.
