The non-English sites, from LibraryThing.nl to cym.LibraryThing.com (Welsh!) now have a Talk option to see only message in your language.

(To be more precise, they're messages in groups which have been listed as belonging to your language. Actual mileage may vary, particularly as some groups are officially bilinguial but not really so.)

Right now, all are marked as "In (LANGUAGE NAME)." Obviously, you're invited to fill that in as much as translating it.

In theory, I'm okay with having a much more nuanced control, perhaps under the "more" section, allowing you to surf messages in any number of languages. It's not currently set up for that, however. Let's see how this goes.

(Can it be that the link isn't working as long as I'm not logged in to the non-English site?)

The link shouldn't be there at all, not not working. What are you seeing?

In (LANGUAGE NAME), link goes to /talk.php?mode=all

Working fine as soon as I log in. Checked on dk.librarything.com and www.librarything.fr
