The whole sentence "This page in English" or "This page in Mandarin" should be in English or Mandrin respectively.

Compare "Rirgwyd rkrgru dlwhgi ro English" to "This page in English". Which is better for people that only read English?

They're pretty close.

And when a page is in the correct language, I would prefer not to have entire sentences in a different language.

If needs be put a "Language Settings" header above it or something, but if you can read the rest of the page then those sentences are not for you!
If you have an area like that, I feel like you don't need full sentences at all.
