Apart from Wikimedia, are there other wiki farms with wikis organized by
language, and therefore using interwiki links? Is any MediaWiki user not
involved in Wikimedia asking for this feature? I'm honestly thinking who else
apart from Wikimedia needs to solve this problem with interwikis.



Then the part about categories... it is really a very different problem. First
let me note that the initial reporter didn't mention categories in the title or
comment 0, this was added by another user later on. Editors use HotCat, aren't
they happy with it? Enabling HotCat in MediaWiki is simple. Someone asked that
such functionality should be included in Core. However, the trend is not to
inject more features in our already big MediaWiki Core, but user extensions et
al to bring more functionality.


For these reasons I believe this 2004 report could be resolved as FIXED in
2014.
