When a user moves a page, the message inserted into the edit history is in their chosen interface language. Anybody who doesn't speak that language will simply be baffled by what they see in watchlists, history pages, etc. The ideal situation would be if the message could be magically translated depending on who was *viewing* the history entry (i.e. it would behave as part of the interface, not just an immutable comment in the history). But this may be a bit far-fetched, so the simpler solution is just to use the content language selected for the entire wiki, which will presumably have been chosen as appropriate for the majority of users.
