Overview[edit]

  • How to deal with the automatic detection of the language to be used on a website.
  • Such automatic adjustment can be very helpful but must be communicated with the user.
  • Such a system can generate errors, so the user should make the final decision on which language to use.

User story[edit]

For the last month or so, the language shown when I open the [...] website seems to be chosen at random - sometimes I get Brazilian Portuguese or German, instead of English. Since I don't use a VPN and my IP address is always in Central Europe, I assume that this means that the automatic localisation feature is misfiring. [...] This morning when I opened the site, all the panels [...] were in French! [...] Whole site in German the second time I came to look at it today...
