Thanks for the link to our sourceforge Max.

Unless this feature is added to mediawiki core, yes - I'm speaking for pywikipedia here - report us any bug in the interwiki sorting, and I (we) will be happy to fix that for pywikipedia.

We do agree that there are local policies to respect on each projects, and trust me, we try to work to comply with these rules. Sometimes we are mistaken (today several complaints about the interwiki sorting of sk: got raised, this should be fixed by now) but really, we are trying to help the community, not to enforce some foreign wiki rules in another.

2008/5/29 Max Semenik maxsem.wiki@gmail.com:

Both major bot frameworks that may change the sort order of interwikis, pywikipedia and AWB, have a highly customizable sorter that follows http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Interwiki_sort_order . If a wiki is handled improperly, people should file a request to http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93107 or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:AWB/B respectively instead of whinning about Teh Evil English Cabal.
