Template:Lang
Hi - Can you please explain what the purpose of Template:Lang (and related templates) is. I can't see any use for them. For example, various derived templates are used on Template:MediaWiki Introduction/nl, where they create links to the Wikipedia in the specified language. What is the point of this? You can reply here or on my talk page, but if I don't here from you within a week or so I will assume it was just an experiment that didn't work and delete them. --HappyDog 01:19, 21 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I use it for indicating it is a link to a Dutch page or an English page. I think nl, de and fr aren't useful, but I would use (instead of these others) en andlang for what I said. SPQRobin 15:33, 21 May 2007 (UTC)


 * The only useful place that the template could link to would be to the page in the language mentioned... which the link already does! I have deleted all but lang, which I have removed the link from (although imho you might as well put the text in-line and not bother with the template at all).  I have updated pages to use this instead of en or equivalent. --HappyDog 14:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok, thank you. SPQRobin 15:55, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Special:Interwiki extension infopage
I don't quite get why the &lt;source&gt; tags are inside /* comments */ as it looks quite bad on the extension page: Extension:Special page to work with the interwiki table (plus looks like it isn't going to work if you copypaste the source from there...) -- Sayuri 14:20, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
 * It is good if you want to download it: on Extension:Special page to work with the interwiki table, I've added a link to the [/w/index.php?title=Extension:Special_page_to_work_with_the_interwiki_table/SpecialInterwiki.php&action=raw&ctype=text/css raw version] of the /SpecialInterwiki.php subpage, and if you copy or save the page in the extensions directory, then you don't need to change the file anymore.
