Also another approach thanks Binaris for mentioning it! The solution with 'Extension:Interlanguage' should be definately the way to go, what about a reply from the developers? I found a request on bugzilla [1] stating (in comment 94); "It's currently targeted to receive a more comprehensive review around March 2012 at which point we'll get a good sense of how realistic a near term roll-out of that is." ...so this may still took a while... :( Regarding the Wikidata, http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiData_WMDE project; as it seams to be it is somehow very unclear about what this exactly is (but may this is just my problem ;)... As far as I can see it should provide an API to give access to all wikipedia content/data. But please correct and extend my statements here...
