Well, Wikipedia has separate sites for each language (though they use
"interwiki links" for the boxes on the left). If you see a way to make
that work, feel free to point it out.

I don't mean to remove the actual pages, only the subsection in the main
page that points to them; we would still have the language-specific
content in the language-specific pages. I'm not suggesting any content
change (and certainly I'm not suggesting to dike it out to a
postgresqlfr.org page), only a presentation change.
