When you blindly inject different language codes into the links, you end up on https://www.gamepedia.com/, which is simply not useful at all.
For example:
https://minecraft-cs.gamepedia.com/Minecraft_Wiki (Czech) exists.
https://minecraft-mk.gamepedia.com/Minecraft_Wiki (Macedonian) doesn't.
So, why should it change? It opens in a browser – an entirely different application that handles this separately. Click one of the available languages there.
We do not own or maintain the browser(s), or that website.
A simple solution for that issue would be to have the URL the link points to as a translatable string.
That would make sense.
If the language wiki does not exist, just link to the default one (English). Or use a translation string as violine said, it would be a better solution.
The fact is when someone, for example a French player using the launcher in his language, want to search some info about Grass Block, he will enter "Bloc d'herbe" in the wiki search box, but that will obviously not work on the default wiki.
Invalid, because of feature request and not a bug.
Of course, it's nice to have the Wiki in your native language (if available), but you're just one additional mouse click away from your target language.
Indeed. The translations are community-submitted. We can't really have URLs as strings without risking abuse.
