Jim,

Note that our handling of multilinguism is different than Wikiepdia. 
Wikipedia links documents on the same subject in different wikis (one 
per language).
In XWiki we make one document have multiple languages. The same URL will 
have different content.

By default the user will receive the one that has the lanugage of its 
browser.
