First of all, excuse me for not writing in dutch, especially since my
post is about internationalization :-).
There are lots of articles in nl:Wikipedia which have the same name as
articles in other Wikipedias, but are _not_ linked by an Inter-Wiki-Link
(e.g. nl-en: ~1500 articles, nl-sv: ~1600 articles, as of last month).
This articles have been listed for many language combinations by
de:Benutzer:SirJective. But not all articles with identical names are
about the same subject, so human work is needed to decide whether an
Interwiki-Link can be automatically generated by a bot. In order to make
this decision easy and comfortable, there is a brilliant tool called
Interwiki-Link-Checker written by de:Benutzer:Flacus.
You might want to check the FAQ at
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Flacus/Wikipedia_Interwiki-Link-Check…
or just try it at
http://www.flacus.de/wikipedia/Interwiki-Link-Checker/index-en.html
A translation of the FAQ and the graphical user interface of the tool
into dutch needs to be done, too. Translations should go to:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer:Flacus/Wikipedia_Interwiki-Link-Check…
I didn't find an internationalization page in nl:wikipedia to insert
this text into (thanks to my not so brilliant ability to read dutch, I'm
sure), so if any of you would put this text into the right place, this
would be great.
Thanks for your time and (maybe even) help, I can just invite you to try
the tool, it's fun and you're reading (and editing) quite a lot of stuff
you wouldn't stumble upon otherwise.
Cheers,
