But there is an obvious problem: I don't think it is possible to do that. The only syntax I came up with was something like {{commons:Template:Potd|width=300|float=right|lang=cs}}, but I didn't even expect _that_ to work (and it did not). I don't believe there would be some other, working way, but for sure: don't you know about a method of using Commons' POTD on another project?
In general, are there any plans for cross-wiki templates? If not, what about special cases? I'm thinking here of NUMBEROFARTICLES, which would be very useful for the portal page (rather than hand-updating the numbers).
