Description Pavel Selitskas [wizardist] 2013-08-28 22:24:29 UTC
Entries in Page settings / Languages don't have dir attributes for the link text. It leads to bidi issues for RTL languages.

Reproducing:
1. Go to an article with a langlink to Hebrew, for instance. Here's my favourite: [[en:August 3]].
2. Open the VisualEditor.
3. Go to Page settings / Languages and scroll down to 'he'.
4. Link text reads as "3 באוגוסט", but it should read with "3" after Hebrew characters (reading left-to-right, of course; in the beginning of the string, if right-to-left).
