Perhaps you could just imitate the QRpedia model, which says, this
article is not available in your default language, and serve up links
to the languages it *IS* available in. After all, presence on Wikidata
means presence on *at least one Wikipedia*, if I'm not mistaken.

This should definitely be done (as agreed in some Wikimania workshop a

Hmm I was wondering about that - thanks for the clarification! I am
not sure Wikidata will be a data farm that Google will want to index

This is a very interesting proposal. I think how well it will work may
vary considerably based on the language.
The strongest case in favor of machine-generating stubs, imo, is in
languages where there are many monolingual speakers and the Wikipedia is
already quite large and active. In that
We already have the translation options on the left side of the screen

This choice is generally a smattering of languages, and a long term

Hi,
We are about to organize a wikiexpedition devoted to train
infrastructure in Poland. It will be officially co-organised with
Polish Railways. Polish Railways will provide us free tickets for
traveling across Poland using any trains and special passes to legally
enter and photograph rail
Since I was thinking about how to do this for some time, I wrote some
developers' notes at

free to comment if anything is not clear or not desirable.

I'm also replying to say how awesome this initiative is! I only wish I had

Have a great time with it and kudos for organizing such a cool trip. I need
to see if Amtrak would be nearly as accommodating over here in the U.S.!
Polish Railways will provide us free tickets excellent negotiation!
Hey, train enthusiasts everywhere else (including the UK and USA) here
is an incredibly tough target for the rest of us to try and beat. :-D
