Extension talk:InterwikiMap

Name
-Prefixes is quite redundant and doesn't clarify how this differs from Extension:Interwiki. Maybe InterwikiMap (as IWM)? Or StandardInterwiki(Map)?. Just ideas, Nemo 22:44, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
 * InterwikiMap sounds pretty good. Leucosticte (talk) 23:23, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

TODO

 * Address the problem of new interwiki links covering existing articles (e.g. Commandos: interwiki link covering the article Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines).
 * Address the problem of caches not being cleared when interwiki links are added, modified, etc.
 * Create an API module ApiQuerySiteinfoEnhanced, inheriting ApiQuerySiteinfo, that has an siprop=interwikimapenhanced option that can provide more info than the regular siprop=interwikimap. iw_wikiname and iw_wikistatus should be added to the interwiki table, and that info should be provided by that module. Also, InterwikiMap should be enhanced so that it can filter by status, e.g. by excluding spammed or needslove wikis.
 * Don't allow an interwiki link to be added that conflicts with a namespace.
