Description:
Please provide a feature that allows admins to easily add a custom sidebar to an
individual page, and/or custom links within the interwikis, like the "Complete
list" item appearing as the last interwiki on the [[:en:wikipedia:Main
Page|English Wikipedia Main Page]]. The "Complete list" item apparently only
appears on Java-enabled browsers, though. Perhaps let each Wikipedia configure
which type of user can add a sidebar that appears on all pages and which type of
user can add a sidebar to an individual page.

Note that in future many pages may have too many interwikis to display and may
need a way to link to a common list of interwikis perhaps on Meta or Commons;
e.g. there could be one file on Commons with all the interwikis for Vitamin, and
then Vitamin articles in each language could choose to list a few interwikis and
then have a link marked "complete list" going to the list of interwikis on
Commons; then the Vitamin interwikis would only have to be maintained in one
place. I mention this so you can think about implementing the sidebar in a way
that will be compatible with that possible future direction. Custom sidebars may
also have other uses. Thank you for considering my suggestion.
