Can't add new show because of failed language validation.

I'm trying to add a Swedish TV show and on step two it says "Show Overview (svenska) - Required (minimum 10 characters)" so I follow the instructions and write a overview in Swedish as asked. In step three the validation fails with "We had trouble validating the language of the overview field. We detected it as Swedish but expected it to be English."
So what's that about? It's asking for a Swedish overview (svenska) at first but then in the next step it all of a sudden expects it to be in English? That's odd both in the behavior and asking for an overview in English for a Swedish game show.

Yeah, this is something Travis needs to fix again. But, in the meantime, make sure that both your Default Language and your "browsing language" are in Swedish.

Not sure what you mean. I can only have Swedish selected on one of the options, if I try to use it on both I get an error.
And honestly don't know why there even is a language option since 95% of Swedes understand English just fine. And even in general it just seems a way to mess things up and complicate the interface, especially when it like with this issue also tries to do it automatically.
Have the site completely in english and just have a manual option for what language you are adding on the "add movie/show"-page.

Not the Fallback Language. The second language is the language in the address bar (just click on the link).

Someone beat me to it but just did what the page asked for and wrote everything in English even though it says it's Swedish so I give up. Simplify the interface as I wrote above and it'll make life easier for all parts.

@Banana @anymod Just a suggestion. Have language mods, Swedish, German, French, etc. Asian ... If InzZzomnia wants to do both Swedish and English overviews, just send a PM to a language mod and let them Kill it or Keep it. InzZzomnia would just choose a language before typing in his overview, independent of what his browser choice is.
