Glad to help, and it's not hard to do as a one-off job. I understand these are the sorts of jobs that toolserver runs but I've no experience wit it. Maybe there's a way to for transwiki to show "for language X, here are the Wikipedias, Wikibooks, Wikiquotes, etc. that have customized this message (as of last run at 2012-12-03 19:50 UTC)." > The most inventive is probably the Hebrew Wikipedia ( > https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcomecreation ), which has a > lot of graphics. It has three big buttons ... And in this case it doesn't look like anyone has copied that customized message to he.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Welcomecreation-msg 1.21wmf5 will launch on wikis tomorrow (today) December 4th. > Most customized welcome pages say a few words that are specific to the > project, such as "Welcome to the Russian Wikiversity.
