There is quite a lot of data out there, if you want it. My suggestion would be to use collapsible sections in the wiki template, like what you see in the [[mw:Template:Extension]] template that is used in pages like [[mw:Extension:InterwikiMap]] or [[mw:Extension:FlaggedRevs]]. Notice how you can expand a lengthy list of parameters, hooks, etc. Each of those hook (hook1, hook2, etc.) also puts the page in the appropriate category. We could do the same with languages, for those wikis that have more than one language, as well as other kinds of data. There is a lot of potential to make it easier for people to find wikis meeting various criteria that they're interested in. | There is quite a lot of data out there, if you want it.

Using bots, it shouldn't be too hard to maintain, either. I'm going to create the prototype and put all the bot code out there along with instructions on how to use it. That way, if I get hit by a bus, you still have it.

Or we could just skip it and move straight to working on interwiki prefixes. [[User:Leucosticte|Leucosticte]] ([[User talk:Leucosticte|talk]]) 22:43, 24 November 2012 (PST) | ||
