If you only look at language-links that got *both* ways, you get a decent 1-to-1 mapping. I used this as part of my thesis, and wrote a short paper about it: <http://brightbyte.de/repos/papers/2008/LangLinks-paper.pdf>. I can also recommend the studies of Rainer Hammwöhner about Wikipedia, especially "Interlingual Aspects if Wikipedia’s Quality" <http://mitiq.mit.edu/iciq/PDF/INTERLINGUAL%20ASPECTS%20OF%20WIKIPEDIAS%20QUALITY.pdf>, which studies the quality of language links and the categtory system, among other things. -- daniel _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
