Sorry about bugging the list about it, but can anyone please explain the reason for not enabling the Interlanguage extension?
See bug 15607 - https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15607
In general, extensions with this status haven't been implemented because they haven't been reviewed by a highly experienced developer.
Brion wrote a few comments there, but i didn't understand what exactly is the problem.
Seconded. Brion's comments are:
I don't quite understand what this extension is meant to accomplish, or how the workflow is envisioned. What are the user interface and performance considerations?
The lack of automatic updates seems less than ideal, as does the multiple fetching of link data over the HTTP API on every page render. Management UI by manual editing of offsite pages looks pretty ugly; what could be done to improve this?
If we're going to create a special tool, there's no point in stopping so short that we still have to rely on somebody to run client-side bots to make it work properly. We've got a site with shared databases and the ability to queue updates automatically on the server side... take advantage of it!
I don't fully understand them.
