I tested the [[Special:Import]] tool today, and it works perfectly. However, there are a few "bugs" with it; when attributing authors, the page history links to a user page that doesn't necessarily exist. I tried importing [[da:Germansk (flertydig)]] to [[no:]], and one author had an account. The link on the author's name was a red link to xyr user page, which is ok. One author did _not_ have an account, though and the link went to [[Special:Contributions/Author]]. I also tried importing a page that was edited by [[nn:User:Jhs]], which is the same as [[no:User:Jorunn]], but _not_ the same as [[no:User:Jhs]] (which used to be me, but is now just a placeholder account). The edit was then attributed to [[no:User:Jhs]], which in fact had nothing to do with the page at all, except having the same username as the original author. When Single Login™ comes, there should be no problems like this, but untill then, I think that the author name in the history should point back to the original wiki, regardless of whether there is a user by that name or not on the current wiki.
Can't really do anything about this. Most accounts are the same (if there) or not. There's no facility for indicating offwiki users.

Another problem as far as I can see: the transwikied texts (here: from cs.wikipedia to cs.wikisource) doesn't seem to be counted by NUMBEROFARTICLES. I transwikied two ones (yesterday and the day before yesterday), and i have still the same number here. ~~~~
Please report separate bugs separately. This bug has been resolved WONTFIX and no further action will be taken on it.
