GTA Wiki talk:Wikis

There is a Hungarian GTA Wiki at w:c:hu.gta. It is not linked to this wiki. As the administrator of my own Wolfenstein Wiki, I would strongly recommend interlanguage linking it to this wiki.

In addition, the Arabic, Danish, Romanian, Norwegian, Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese, and Swedish wikis, while already linked to this wiki, do not appear to have interlanguage links on the Main Page. This is a recipe for disaster, and may cause duplicate wikis to be created- for example, there is a duplicate Swedish wiki at w:c:sv.gtasajten. With several hundred pages on both sites, it is certainly a significant amount of wasted effort to have two. Thank you. Elecbullet (talk) 06:30, October 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * After further research I have found a Persian wiki at w:c:fa.gta and a Vietnamese wiki at w:c:vi.gta. These two must be interlanguage linked.


 * I do a lot of interlanguage linking for many wikis so if an administrator feels like he trusts me to take care of this I would be more than happy. Or do it yourself- I don't mind. Elecbullet (talk) 06:49, October 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Done. Thank you for pointing that out --Perry (talk) 11:39, October 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, thank you for your enthusiasm, but I was going to wait for the permission of an administrator of this site before we did anything. You see, you linked them to English and German, and told them to "do all the rest". That won't cut it. You need to type out every possible combination- at the moment, I have checked, the Spanish wiki will not link to the new wikis, because we didn't explicitly tell them to do that. Thankfully the most important link is that from the English wiki, but it still is a bit inadequate.


 * If an English administrator will give me permission I will link everything together as needed. Elecbullet (talk) 18:08, October 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, if telling them to "do all the rest" doesn't work this way then Good Luck on your part. I don't believe, you can find an admin in every wiki to ask for permission. --Perry (talk) 18:20, October 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * I wouldn't try to do that. I work off of the assumption that pretty much every foreign wiki is benefited from this, which is true. The English wiki has nothing to lose, but still I always seek permission from the English administrators first.


 * In any case you've gone and made the links to English already so I guess the point is moot. I dunno. Elecbullet (talk) 20:37, October 30, 2012 (UTC)
