I opened the bug in which i ask to enable Nikola's extension on Wikipedia two years ago. For what it's worth, most of the comments there approve of the idea and there's no strong opposition: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15607 See also http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:A_newer_look_at_the_interlanguage_link > 2.

It is possible to develop something more interesting and challenging, but it seems that Nikola's solution will work *now* to solve some of the problems of interwiki maintenance that have annoyed many people for more than five years. In any case, when something more interesting is developed, it will be easier to migrate there from Nikola's solution than from the current state of affairs. -- אָמִיר אֱלִישָׁע אַהֲרוֹנִי Amir Elisha Aharoni http://aharoni.wordpress.com "We're living in pieces, I want to live in peace." - T.
