Wikidatans,
Is there a possibility that we could also include German as a third
language here for deployment testing?
Not only are many Wikipedians on this list familiar with the German
Wikipedia and are German speakers (for a sizable development
community) but in beginning to develop World University and School's
(like Wikipedia with MIT OCW) second language (WUaS is planning for
all 3,000-8,000 languages and an universal translator -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/WUaS_Universal_Translator -
building on Google Translate +), I know German, and German open
educational resources will be significantly sizable in a way I can
read, and eventually aggregate.
Is this already happening, in addition to Hungarian (I'm fairly new on
this email list)?
World University and School is also interested in integrating, in this
early phase, WUaS's wiki development with Wikipedias in its deployment
on Wikidata, if at all possible.
Pending the requests for comments on huwp we will go with them as a
first step. After that other Wikipedias will follow as lined out on
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes/Deployment
WhichWikipedias those will be isn't decided yet. If dewp will be next
among other things heavily depends on if they want to be next ;-) So
far I have not heard anything in that direction.
Cheers
Lydia
