[Pywikipedia-l] [Wikitech-l] [Foundation-l] Fwd: [WikiEN-l] Bot policy for all wikis

[Nicolas Dumazet]

Thanks for the link to our sourceforge Max.

Unless this feature is added to mediawiki core, yes - I'm speaking for
pywikipedia here - report us any bug in the interwiki sorting, and I
(we) will be happy to fix that for pywikipedia.

We do agree that there are local policies to respect on each projects,
and trust me, we try to work to comply with these rules. Sometimes we
are mistaken (today several complaints about the interwiki sorting of
sk: got raised, this should be fixed by now) but really, we are trying
to help the community, not to enforce some foreign wiki rules in
another.
