Translations:Universal Language Selector/Compact Language Links/21/en

The main factor for choosing the languages are the previous language selections from the user. This means that you can select the languages you want by simply clicking on them. If you are interested in reading an article in Japanese, once you select it, a link to the Japanese language will be surfaced for easier access next time. The first time, due to the lack of previous choices, the language selection is based on other factors: the languages of your web browser (also configurable by you) and geographic information (which is based on CLDR Territory-Language information to which anyone can contribute).
