Introduction

Interwiki is a MediaWiki extension that allows to use intenal links format (i.e. [[something]]) instead of external ones, to link to other languages pages and some external wikis such as Wikipedia, MediaWiki...

It uses a prefix table to redirect addresses, wich is stored in the page : Special:Interwiki.

Interlanguages Links

Link to a page in another language

Syntax:
[[:<language_code>:<Full_page_name>]]

Here available languages codes are de( 🇩🇪) , en(🇬🇧, 🇺🇸), es(🇪🇸), fr (🇫🇷, 🇧🇪, 🇨🇦, 🇨🇭) and ru (🇷🇺)

Example :
[[:fr:Guilde:Cercle du Bois d'Almati]]

The Trad Template

The Trad Template displays a small languages banner as on the right of this line, which flags, when displayed, are linking to other languages pages. It can also provide a translation status information. See the Trad Template page for full documentation.

Call:
{{Trad
|DE = Page |DEs= (translation status code)
|EN = Page |ENs= 
|ES = Page |ESs= 
|FR = Page |FRs= 
|RU = Page |RUs= 
|H  = (1 for horizontal)
|palette= Theme
|ref= Page_link
|com= Comment
}}

The "In Other Languages" Menu

Interwiki allows to insert an "In Other Languages" Menu in the "Navigation Bar" which provides links to translated pages exactly as the Trad template does. To do so, just insert blind links to the translated pages with the following syntax (no leading ":" ):

[[language_code:Full_Page_Name]] (i.e. with the namespace)

For example, this page's "In Other Languages" Menu is obtained with :

[[de:Help:Interwiki]]
[[en:Help:Interwiki]]
[[es:Help:Interwiki]]
[[fr:Help:Interwiki]]
[[ru:Help:Interwiki]]

Note that the Help: namespace does not need to be translated.

Linking to Other Wikis

Linking to other wikis follows the same rule, just use the Special:Interwiki prefixes instead of language ones; (wikipedia linking secifies the language AFTER the prefix).

Examples:
internal format Links to
[[:wikipedia:NPC]] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPC
[[:wikipedia:de:Nicht-Spieler-Charakter]] https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicht-Spieler-Charakter
[[:mediawikiwiki:Help:Contents]] https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents

Inter-Languages and Inter-Wiki Transclusion

Transclusion of other languages are also possible. To include a page of another language just use:

{{<language_code>:<Full_page_name>}}
thus exactly the same as if the page was in the same language space, but the beginning language code. Please note that the <noinclude></noinclude>  and <includeonly></includeonly> seem to be ignored, and the whole page is transcluded.

As an example, this page is not translated but transcluded to the other languages instead ( this could change in the future).
