Hi Sigbert, Please link to the wiki in question. As what you describe should be working fine on a German wiki. MediaWiki abstracts namespaces into numbers internally so whether you use the canonical "File" or the namespace name in the content language (eg. "german") will not make a difference. One question though: Are you sure your wiki is set to 'german' ? Or is it technically still an English MediaWiki with German-content ? You can verify by checking the LocalSettings.php configuration file and looking for $wgLanguageCode (which represents the "site language"). Note that this is seperate from the "user language" you can choose from Special:Preferences. The Wiki-syntax accepts canonical input and site language input. If $wgLanguageCode is indeed set to 'de', please include a link to the wiki in your reply. If the wiki is not public, make sure to include the following data from the "Special:Version" page: * Installed software ** MediaWiki version ** PHP version ** Database system and version -- Krinkle _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
