Step 1: Toss out the globe covered in runes from languages from all around the world and just use the Latin W.
Step 2: Remove or hide all languages except English from the home page, and hide the means to access those other languages under options and accessors written in English.
Step 3: Replace or supplement menu items with graphic symbols likely only recognized or used in Western cultures.
Step 4: Throw in a Share button because Social or whatever. Also include a Print button that likely only works in certain browsers because nobody knows how to use their browser's built-in Print button.
Step 5: Install Frontpage on Wikipedia.
Step 6: More colors and graphics.
It's as if the article was written about this very redesign.
