Hi Chantal, If you are really dealing with languages (i.e. not very dynamic or large list of cores), could you simply copy a core and then delete all documents that don't satisfy the language criteria? (e.g. copy the main core with docs in all languages, and then delete all docs that are not in, say, Japanese).
