You do indeed need to change it from all those wikis. It is typically something that a bot does well, so the best thing to do (if there are more than a handful of languages involved) is probably to contact a bot owner and let them do it. I have taken this message as such a request, and resolved the Ferenc Farkas issue. However, whether done by bot or manually, there is still the problem that there might be a bot that sees some of the languages before, and others after the change; such a bot would consider the interwiki a 'missing' one on the languages coming afterward, and re-add it. I don't know of an easy way to resolve this, the only thing I can think of is adding an article on the composer on eo:, or on the esperantist on one of the other languages. Or keep an eye at the articles, and keep changing until we get lucky... -- André Engels, [email protected] _______________________________________________ Pywikipedia-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-l
