Thanks ALL for all help,
I need some steps about how to create a Calendar like this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/20s.
I have no idea where should I start from.
Thanks a lot, mauro.

I'm not sure what you are asking, this is a pretty simple hand edited (judging by the history) page which uses no tricky wiki markup, the only thing I see are standard links -- Rick DeNatale
Visit the Project Mercury Wiki Site http://www.mercuryspacecraft.com/
Thanks Rick,
Yes. That is what I want. A Calendar made by links where whenever you click in a link (of the Calendar) takes you to another page with the same calendar structure.
As instance if you click in this link http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/1, show you year 1. If you click in the number 2, it takes you to year 2. If you click in 20 a.C., it takes you to Década de 20 a.C. page, and so on so forth.
I think that there is some way to do that with less pain than write and save all pages manually. And all pages mean something like 100's and 100's of pages.
I might be wrong, but if not, how people create a calendar like that?
Thanks a lot, mauro.

Then just cut-and-paste the same links on all pages, or put your calendar links into a template and use {{template name}} on every page.

You must put the template on every page, even if it's hundreds of pages. The only way to avoid something like that is to edit the mediawiki template files and insert links manually.. but I don't know how to do that. Doing that would put the links on every single page in your wiki.
Mauro, is that for a Wikipedia?
If yes: you can do that easily with a bot. If no: you need to know at least how to modifiy the pywikipedia bot in order to accept your domain and you can do that using the bot.
If it is needed on a wikipedia, I can help you with creating the structure and also uploading it (creating also the first interwiki link in order to allow you to run the interwiki bot) - what I then need from you is the translation of the basic structure I use to create the pages to be uploaded in the desired language.
Bots can safe a lot of time doing things and editing a calendar is also easy for people who do not 100% write that specific language.
Well: I can do things on that side (upload) only after the New Year when I am back home.
Best,
Sabine

Thanks Sabine,
I am afraid, not.
I am using MediaWiki with a different domain. Nevertheless, I will be really thankful to you for any help, even the little ones. I need them.
So far, if I understood, I will have to modify pywikipedia in order to get it working with my domain, right?
Have a great time, mauro.

Hi Mauro,
I am using MediaWiki with a different domain. Nevertheless, I will be really thankful to you for any help, even the little ones. I need them.
If you don't have problems with a Neapolitan or Italian source text I can help you to create tha pages to be uploaded - it is easy to do this with an Office application (OOo or Microsoft Office) that has mailmerge
So far, if I understood, I will have to modify pywikipedia in order to get it working with my domain, right?
yes - I remember that this needs to be done, but I don't remember in which file
Best, Sabine
