It is relatively easy to find all words of one language: the references for Sjabloon:-xx- where xx is the ISO 639 code for a language will give you all the words in a language.
Up to five hundred words. Not nearly "all".
Muke, at this point in time with *4925* words in nl:wiktionary 500 words is sufficient. When I have finished with the conversion, I will look into using the output from queries to create content pages for the languages. This will overcome the still theoretic limit of 500 words.
One question, do you have something positive to say as well, or can you only repeat yourself? I have heard you say this more than once.
Only as you keep repeating that it will give "all" words, which implies continuity.
PS Did you happen to notice this problem ? Have you tried it ? Did you find any problems on the nl:wiktionary ? Do you have a better alternative ? Please be positive, I put a lot of work in it and I prefer something positive in stead of something negative.
I have already suggested putting words in categories. You can add [[Category:Nederlands]] to your [[Template:-nl-]].
Perhaps Mediawiki doesn't handle large categories well yet, but it is better than whatlinkshere, and since you only have 4925 words so far, the developers will have time to make the categories efficienter before you begin to stress them--even if such doesn't happen to be the case, an index could be made from the category listing, and the category link removed from the template. (Still, I wouldn't try this on en, though we are doing it on la, which by no accounts is expected to grow _very_ large.)
