Redirecting your user page from one wiki to another can be frustrating for those who would like to be able to click on "User Contributions" to see your additions to that wiki. A means to bypass this would be to create interwiki templating. For example, I have created a template of my user page found at {{Alterego}}. If I wanted to use this on wikiquote, I could enter {{Wikipedia:Alterego}} or {{Wikipedia:User:Alterego}} and it would pull the information from that wiki.

I had a related request and when searching the existing bugs, I found this. My request was to have templates that are not associated with any wiki (or on Commons?) that can be used anywhere, e.g., Disambig, which now exists on both Meta and the English Wikipedia.

Artilces like [[en:Ranks and insignia of NATO Armies]] can be transfered to other pages as almost all of the page is in a diferent language as it is a comparasion chart. I intend to do more of such articles and this would help me greatly. Cool Cat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Coolcat
In one of the Wiki projects I'm involved with, we are often wanting to link to topics in Wikipedia but expect the user to want to stay within our project as they are likely to want to move on to other topics in that Wiki. It would be very useful, therefore, to show pages from other wikis within that wiki's framework. I'm not sure how links within such a topic would be handled, however.
I am working in CHESS PROJECT from English and Spanish wikipedias. An inter wiki template will be so useful for our chess diagram template. gengiskanhg from en, es, de.
Hallo! FireDragon and I started to build a *crosswiki* test environment. If you compare http://www.wikipage.de/en/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 http://www.wikipage.de/de/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 http://www.wikipage.de/eo/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 http://www.wikipage.de/it/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 http://www.wikipage.de/ja/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 http://www.wikipage.de/ro/index.php?title=Special:Allpages&from=ALLPAGESNS&namespace=10 you will see that most of the templates are the same only some are *localized* and redirect to English titles. This is another step to "portability of code" - see http://test.leuksman.com/index.php/FiverAlpha:Portability - in a multilanguage environment. I am transfering manualy the templates from one wiki to another in order to verify the impacts. This is now easier do to navigation features (see bug 2474 comment 5). It would be very helpfull to be able to *share* templates the same way as images. This would be also a great benefit for WikiMedia foundation projects and would be a great help both to syster projects and to new language projects. Can anybody provide a path? Could anybody help in the mean time with a bot? Regards Reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
this is now implemented. not live on WMF yet.

This enhancement request has "resolved (fixed)" status. Is this interwiki templates are available now?
(In reply to comment #9) > This enhancement request has "resolved (fixed)" status. Is this interwiki > templates are available now? Comment #7 says, "this is now implemented [but] not live on Wikimedia farm yet", so the answer is yes and no. Yes, there's software support; no, it's not enabled within Wikimedia's installation.
My understanding was that this would work the same way as images, i.e. no syntax changes. Why, then, is this marked as blocking bug 2376?
So when can we have this bug working and kicking?

(In reply to comment #13) > Bug 2376: Template syntax (tracking) is a tracking bug; a kind of "to do" list. This isn't a syntax issue though, I thought.
I see this in "not live on WMF", but how to use it then? I have my own mediawiki 1.5 installation, however code like these: {{wikipedia:border|{{wikipedia:flagicon|POL}}}} is not interpreted there. What needs to be done to make it working and when this feature would be "live on WMF"?
Yes, can someone make documentation on how to use this feature?
This feature has not yet been enabled on WMF wikis. See Bug 4547.
I would have voted for this, but I'll just vote for its application on {fr,en}.wikipedia.org .
Also, please document - just an example would be good, is it like {{:it:template}}, or {{it::template}}, or anything else?
This bug is a software issue that has been fixed. Please DO NOT comment on it further. A request to enable this feature on Wikimedia sites is at bug 4547. Related requests can be opened by creating new bugs.
Where has it been implemented so far?
On any wiki that's chosen to enable $wgEnableScaryTranscluding. There's no list, it's not like we centrally track all MediaWiki installations. This bug is closed and there is no reason to comment on it anymore. See bug 4547 and bug 9890 for open bugs, that have not actually been fixed, related to this.
