I think this is a week point of our system. Work
of Wikipedia is
based on the approach that all the mistakes are easier to correct
than to prevent. A vandal may "work" on several pages to be
vandalized, and I can revert them in a few seconds. Or someone
writes an article with a wrong title, I can easily rename it. But
here to commit the mistake is easy (one wrong iw into one
article), and, by means of bots, the correction gets difficult.
This is a system inversion.
We should invent a systematical solution to this problem. I
thought on some hidden comment next to a wrong iw that has a
meaning for the bots to pick that iw out of all articles, and
never put back. Or just never into that very article. (I just got
Dr. Trigon's mail in the minute, that's another approach for the
same problem, also a good point to start thinking.)
A more far-reaching and better solution has already been discussed
for years, namely porting the interwikis to a separate (wiki) site,
so that such changes can be made at once for all languages rather
than having to be done separately at each. Maybe that will be
worked on with the data project the Germans are setting up.
Also another approach thanks Binaris for mentioning it! The solution
with 'Extension:Interlanguage' should be definately the way to go, what
about a reply from the developers? I found a request on bugzilla [1]
stating (in comment 94);
"It's currently targeted to receive a more comprehensive review around
March 2012 at which point we'll get a good sense of how realistic a
near term roll-out of that is."
...so this may still took a while... :(
Regarding the Wikidata,
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiData_WMDE
project; as it seams to be it is somehow very unclear about what this
exactly is (but may this is just my problem ;)... As far as I can see
it should provide an API to give access to all wikipedia content/data.
But please correct and extend my statements here...
