[Wikidata-l] Language code and site code in the links section - Wikidata

16 Aug 2014

There are 3 columns in the sitelink section: "Language", "Code" and
"Linked
page". Usually "language-code" and "wiki-code" have a permanent
1:1
correspondence , but not in all projects (incubator, meta, wikidata).

Would it be possible to add a configuration option so that for wikis that
host several languages the "language code" is also requested?

In this case it would be better to change the column order to "wiki code",
"language" and "linked page", that way the users would enter first
the
wiki-code and then if that wiki has the multiple language configuration
enabled, it would request the language code as well.

For wikis that have pages translated into multiple languages (meta,
wikidata) the code "mul" can be used.

Thanks
