Intresting! I didn't know of this. I tried on this page
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ATranslate&taction=translate&group=page-Terms+of+use&task=view

and there it seems quite practical to use. It seems to compare each 
paragraph, one at a time, this make it easy, but perhaps pulls you away 
a bit from the overall context. Anyway... interesting. Thanks.

But I don't know if and how it could be integrated on (at least) a 
sample page on the blender wiki... to test.

I could test on a test mediawiki install on my local server, just to 
learn more: does anyone know if database dumps are available for the 
blender wiki,and/or how I could replicate the same setup and content (at 
least some manual content) on my test mediawiki server? (no web 
mirroring, of course, I know how to do that, but I need a local 
mediawiki to work as it is on the official wiki)?

Or, it could also be tried on a wiki test copy elsewhere, if anyone has 
one available (better if easily destroyable/restorable, a vm perhaps).
