Help talk:Interlanguage links/German

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alberta has no text at the German wikipedia.


This page could still be used--there are still those articles that were linked over there but now don't work (the articles got moved or deleted?) --KQ 15:08 Aug 30, 2002 (PDT)

Some links were intentionally created to nonexistent pages, see Talk:Phoenicia.
Also, don't forget that there are plenty of articles that don't yet have interlanguage links from the English! Seek out on the wikis you can more-or-less understand and link as you find 'em. --Brion
Or do what I plan to do: use the random page function on the German Wiki, find an article without language links, use the fish to translate the title, search for that title on the English wiki and then cross-link the two articles (it is much easier doing it this way since most of the articles on the German wiki have counterparts on the same subject on the English one). --mav
Hmm, I don't trust automated translations much, they produce too much garbage. So we might end up with links to the wrong topics which could exist for a long time because I don't expect too many people check those inter-wiki links for correctness. I prefer links created by eyes & hands (and hopefully brain) - slower but more reliable. Give us Germans a little time :) Ben-Zin


Also, consider going by subjects; I linked most of the top-level subject pages a while ago. Personal names and latin/greek-based scientific words are usually similar enough to quickly turn up most equivalencies. (Right now I'm going through Astronomy and Astrophysics.) --Brion
