The answer for multilingual documents is Unicode/ISO 10646.
See here for a page that mixes languages and scripts (see the sidebar on the left): http://www.unicode.org/unicode/standard/WhatIsUnicode.html

If your articles are not already in Unicode, then you need to convert them. For the web page encoding itself, you should use UTF-8.
See http://www.unicode.org/unicode/faq/unicode_web.html

For more information, you should join the unicode@unicode.org mailing list and ask there.
