Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: interwiki Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Multichill (multichill) Assigned to: Multichill (multichill) Summary: Update interwiki's with commonscat.py
Initial Comment: Commonscat.py should update interwiki's at Commons when working on a category. Some code is already available, but not the policy on how to update the links. We have several sources:
-interwiki links to articles on the Commons category -interwiki links to categoires on the Commons category -interwiki links to articles at the Wikipedia article -interwiki links to categories at the Wikipedia category
Not clear how to deal with this. We don't want bots constantly changing the links at a Commons category because multiple categories at some Wikipedia link to the same Commons category. Interwiki conflicts are probably going to be a source of problems too.

Message: I would be a great help if commonscats and interwiki on Commons were updated af often and "easy" as interwiki-links on the Wikipedia-projects. So I thing it is a great idea.

Message: A solution might be: - Wikipedia article => Commons category - Wikipedia category => Commons category - Commons gallery => Wikipedia article
(Commons article = Commons gallery)
