Yes, but why are you creating empty articles with English links? On www.wikipedia.org, we're trying to delete obsolete non-articles to see the "?" links again, remember? How are Germans supposed to see that there's no Georg Ohm article? It is markedup as existing because of the language link. So please, only add language links to existing German articles, OK? --Magnus Manske 01:32, 30. Aug 2002 (PDT)
Sure - but somebody placed links in the English articles pointing to the German ones that then only display a blank page (that's the only way I've been getting here). Most of these I was able to then find via a search here and I then fixed the English language link -- 3 of them I coulnd't find however (thus the links). Many of these might have something to do with the change in software. Somehow there is now different catitalization here now that wasn't here before -- this has broken many inter-language links (most of which have been easy to repair). My hope was that a native speaker would see the link at the title and maybe fix that through a redirect (as I was able to do with several already). This does assume that a German article was at that title previously -- somebody may have made a typo on the English page while making the link (yet another reason why a native speaker would be useful). -- mav
Yes, that's because of the UseModWiki version this wikipedia was running on before - it forced every word in an article title to have the first character capitalized. Internally, it worked for lower-case links as well, though. After the conversion, I moved 100-200 pages manually to a correct title... Anyway, I was just worried that you might try to "encourage" German writers to look at the English articles and translate them by putting language links in empty pages. As this is not the case, sorry if I sounded a little grumpy. --Magnus Manske 13:46, 30. Aug 2002 (PDT)
- As I recall, last month Benutzer:LA2 put in a number of those links to nonexistant German and Swedish articles on the English wiki; see discussion on Talk:Phoenicia. --Brion VIBBER
Hello Maveric, welcomely in the German Wikipedia. Class that you provide so many left between the whole Wikis, it will more weld together the projects. (translated by babelfish) :-) --Kurt Jansson 06:47, 1. Sep 2002 (PDT)
Thank you for the welcome! :) --Maveric149
