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: None Group: None
Status: Closed
Priority: 2 Private: No Submitted By: ChongDae (cdpark) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: interwiki.py should somehow behave somewhat better
Initial Comment: Please re-support unequal exceptions.
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12041511
In some languages, pages are redirected to temporary pages.
For example, in es.wikipedia, [[es:2006]] is forwarded to [[es:Wikipedia:Artculo futuro]]. when run interwiki.py, it connects [[Wikipedia:Artculo futuro]] into [[2006]] page.
If we can specify [[es:Wikipedia:Artculo futuro]] != [[2006]], it is simple.
The idea of {{interwikiconflict}} can be solve this case. But it don't work always. For example, in japanese wikipedia [[year 1]] is forwarded to [[1st century]] page. The unequal exception is also helpful in this case.

Big problem with the unequal principle is that due to the nature of its setup, it is unique for each language. This means that e.g. if dk: reports "Alchemy" and "Philosophers stone" on a single page, every other language must report this in an unequal configuration file individually. If this is setup from scratch, it should be done in a proper way, so that a single setup line "nl:Steen der wijzen" < "dk:Alkymi" is also enough to prevent an improper link from de: or es:
This means that the unequal tests must be performed in many different stages of the interwiki script.
Isn't it easier to think of an on-wiki template to cover all cases? Can the Danish article somehow be labeled?

But interwiki.py with -years option links [[es:2006]]. {{disambig}} and {{interwikiconflict}} do not solve all cases.

The obvious solution is not to link to [[es:2006]] or to [[ja:year 1]] at all.
