FSF are a partner of ours, so I guess it is on topic. I found it

The fact is that Microsoft still effectively levies a tax on most

Hi all,
I ran some analysis last week, to get some numbers out of the
Wikipedia language links. One type of reports that were generated was
the list of all articles in the main namespaces of the Wikipedias that
link to more than one article in another language edition of Wikipedia
(so called doubl
Hi Denny,
This is a really interesting list.
Looking at the Hungarian list, I find that in many instances the duplicate
interwiki link is actually commented out (in the form of " or ),
and not real duplicate links. (In some cases there are indeed duplicate
links, where one concept covers two conce
Hi Denny,
TL;DR: It's a very important question, but don't worry about it too
much. Just do Wikidata well as it is currently planned.
Now, the full reply.
I wrote a bit of an essay about it in 2008:

Thanks for this list. For the languages I know, I've started going
through and fixing ones that are clearly wrong. If a number of people do
that, that should improve the general quality/consistency of interwiki
links. I second the other comment that it'd be nice if the parsing could
be re-run t
Hello,
So may I guess that "double links" are usually the result of a
Wikipedian who was not sure which language link to set, so in doubt,
he simply put in the language links for two different articles?
And in general, is it imagineable that different languages divide the
knowledge in different w

I think the top slot in the poll I took was Saturdays, either 11AM to noon
SF time (6PM-7PM UTC, going from memory) or noon to one SF time (7PM-8PM
UTC).
I am totally fine with either of those times, and so I will volunteer to do
my next office hours in one of those slots. Normally I'm scheduled v
