A template, {{other languages}}, uses a canonical list of languages that
are available for a specific page. The languages are listed somewhere
like here:
  http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Other_languages/Meta:Interlanguage_links&action=edit
I think it would be possible to have even more automation of it. So we
will have one place where you add what language you have translated an
article in -- compared to two with separate wikis (interlanguage links
on each wiki page).
