I would think the simplest way to do it is to have [[image:...]] reference the English wiki, and [[bild:...]] the German one.
So what do you call the French one? And isn't "bild" also in some other Germanic language?
The latter isn't a problem; it can link to local images in the Dutch wikipedia as well--I didn't intend to be able to cross-link from any language to any other, just to have "local" and "main" images. But your point about French is a good one. I aleady do accept links like "en:user:Fred", so "en:bild:Fred.jpg" isn't much of a stretch.
Okay, I just wanted to say "Thank you!" to everybody who made this possible: Lee, Brion, Magnus, and everybody else involved. The new software has a really nice "feel", and the features are just great. I knew the software from the English Wikipedia, but it's another thing to see it on "our own" wiki.
Brion is working on the upper to lower case script, so that problem will be solved soon.
I'd like to delete a few pages (empty ones, of course <g>), and make some database queries (yes, I'll be careful), so could someone please make me admin, sysop or whatever I need to be able to do this?
It would be nice to have the old German usemod Wikipedia on a subdomain, just in case something got lost on the way to the new database (like the talk pages from our HomePage). If we do this, could we prevent google and others from indexing it?
Google has indexed test-de.wikipedia.com and de-beta.wikipedia.com, so maybe we should redirect from there to www.wikipedia.de, if we don't already do this.

As the first non-English to get a production conversion, you're the guinea pigs. Keep finding those problems for us. ;)

Poof, you're a sysop.

I second this; the old stuff needs to be accessible, at least until everyone's confident that large swathes of data aren't missing (anymore).
Which reminds me: how can I get at the old Usemod database for the English wikipedia? I'd like to get the old revisions merged in at some point, but I can't do it without the data!

de-beta.wikipedia.org should already bring up the correct wiki; test-de.wikipedia.com needs to be changed in the DNS. Jimbo, Jason?

Thanks, but I can only see the English Wikipedia.

Hmm... DNS is a tricky beast, maybe it just hasn't propagated to you. Also, I didn't make any changes on the new server. Apache may be serving the english wiki for that sub-domain...

Oops, I forgot to change the apache config. It should now be serving up the right stuff on test-de.wikipedia.com.
