Halló! Normaly (99%) I use the same interface as the languages of the wiki's. I noticed that the numbers of items in the "Navigation" menue differs between the wikis: # 5 items: [[lt:]], ... # 6 items: [[en:]], [[he:]], ... # 7 items: [[et:]], [[lv:]], [[ro:]], ... If you change the user interface to another language then the une used for the wiki you maigth have the following anomalous situations: a) if you look at [[lt:]] with the interface in Romanian language you will see '''more'' items then available: 7 not 5 b) if you look at [[ro:]] with the interface in Latvian language you will see '''less'' items then available: 5 not 7 c) Because lack of coordination you will follow a link which maight be "''labeled''" differntly, it maight have another '''content''' then you expect. Example: * The seccond navigation item at [[en:]] is [[en:Wikipedia:Community Portal]] linked to [[de:Wikipedia:Portal]] linked to [[ca:Portada]] (in the article namespace). * The last is the first navigation item at [[ca:]]. The seccond navigation item at [[ca:]] is [[ca:Viquipèdia:La taverna]] linked to [[en:Wikipedia:Village pump]] and [[de:Wikipedia:Forum]]. According to my opinion harmonising the wiki's would be the most suitable solution. I have no idea about how to solve the problem "with software". Interlanguage links have improuved but there are still many conflicts regarding these pages as one can see. ([[ca:Portada]] maight be linked to [[en:Main Page]], [[de:Hauptseite]] etc. Regards Reinhardt [[user:gangleri]] P.S. Please follow and or contribute to the discussion about this issue at [[meta:Talk:Wikimedia projects]]. Thanks in advance!
lt has the community portal and current events links explicitly disabled: http://lt.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Portal http://lt.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Currentevents
