I'll probably have to jump on irc but it's late so I thought I'd start here 
first. 

Use MW to write content for help screens. Use a proxy to serve the content in 
an admin panel. The issue: Special:MyLanguage doesn't work as it does pushing 
users at their language when they click a link in the help window. Instead, the 
proxy requests the literal link to the page of Special:MyLanguage/A_pagename 
which of course does not exist as a page because Special:MyLanguage isn't 
processed first to see if the language a user is viewing exists before sending 
the user to the language page or fallback language page. 

REGEX out Special:MyLanguage/ ? Then add on lang code of admin view of 
interface to match help system pages in mw. Can be done but that would be 
expensive. Some pages could have 10-20 links. 

Thoughts appreciated as I maybe missing something with the api. 

Thanks
Tom
