Sisterlinks project
Current situation:
interwiki links
between all languages
|
|
Proposed situation:
links of all languages
to one central point
|
The sisterlinks project aims to collect links to all articles on all sisterprojects.
The collection of links is stored on a central place, typically on Commons.
See also User:Henkvd/Sisterproject
This collection of links is also meant as a start for meta:A new look at the interwiki link. >>>
This project is planned to have 4 phases
- a pilot with only Science categories to English language sister projects
- all categories to English language sister projects
- distribute present sisterlinks to sister projects in all languages
- articles as well as categories
First Phase
In the first phase only 1) Categories 2) Science and 3) English language will be linked, as a pilot version.
See examples at Category:Science and its subcategories Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics
Second Phase
All other categories to the English language sister projects
How to contribute
- search for corresponding categories in Commons, en:Wikipedia and on a en:sisterproject
- on commons: add the full sisterlinks, use parts of the example below
- add {{sisterlinks|category:xxx}} on en:sisterproject
- add {{sisterlinkswp|category:xxx}} on en:wikipedia
- check all the links (check you copied the categorynames from the right sisterproject)

The following templates are used
- Template:Sisterheader, no parameters
- Template:Sisterend, no parameters
- Template:Sisterwikipedia, max 50 links
- Template:Sisterwiktionary, idem
- Template:Sisterwikinews, idem
- Template:Sisterwikiquote, idem
- Template:Sisterwikibooks, idem
- Template:Sisterwikisource, idem
- Template:Sistermetawiki, only 2 parameters: font and link
- Template:Sisterwikispecies, idem
- Template:Sistercommons, idem
Every link consists of
| xx: | font | link |
where font is
- space: normal
- b: bold
- r: red, indicating the link does (not yet) exist
As each link consists of 4 parameters and a sisterproject template can hold up to 50 links the sistertemplates must (at least) hold 200 parameters. Empty parameters could be added like this:
{{Sisterwiktionary|
|en:| |Category:xxx|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
}}

Please add comments here:
- Red is use for a blank page. User:84.121.35.52
- Red is indeed intended for missing pages. I only used it once for en:Template:sisterlinks indicating it has an other layout. Making it greeen, italic or otherwise is only possible with an additional template, which is only used once. HenkvD 15:53, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- I prefer and automatic linking in from every Wikimedia Sister Project to other ones (in a similar way to the button "Search" in Commons. User:84.121.35.52
- A general "Search" does not actually mean a page might exists. On a general project like commons the chance that a sertain page exists on hundreds of pages is slim. Only if all (or a majority of) projects have a related page this migh be usefull. Furthermore every language should have a different parameter as the translation is deifferent, so it is not on option. HenkvD 15:53, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
