That would actually work.
Though I don't see why a developer can't just take care of it. It's been a really long time now, and os.wikipedia has plenty of users and articles, yet _interwiki links to and from it don't work_.

A way out may be manual addition of the actual language codes list into the Ossetic WP. It will solve the interwiki problems on our side.
It'd be also great if somebody add the code for "os" to, at least, the most culturally important for Ossetians WPs such as ru, ka, tr, fa, cv, tt and probably en, de, eo.

Hello there,
The other example of the misfunctioning interwiki links can be found at http://os.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A3%D1%8B%D1%80%D1%8B%D1%81%D1%81%D0%B0%D0%B... �D all the interwikies _from_ the Ossetic WP to older WPs do work, while the interwiki to cv: (created in December 2004 or so) is the red part of the article.
How can we change all that? Feeling ourselves a somewhat outer project with no links to the "main WP" is really weird. E. g. now we have a really cute article http://os.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%EF%BF%BD%E... translated into Russian, German and Esperanto. We would like to propose it for the "Translation of the Week" as soon as we have the well-structured English version. But how can we do that, if no interwiki links to the Ossetic articles can exist?!..
Respectfully, Slavik Ivanov
