Function details: Where a page for which a translation request has been made using the ((Expand language)) family of templates, without a target page, has an appropriate interwiki link, that will be used as the target. If there is no such interwiki link a suitable annotation will be made to mark the article as inspected.

Fairly simple. Rich Farmbrough 03:04, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Let me know what sort of inspection parameter you'll be using for ones without a suitable interwiki, so that I can change the template to add a hidden maintenance category. Templates without a suitable interwiki should probably just be removed. Thanks so much for doing this! Calliopejen1 (talk) 14:14, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm testing on Spanish, French and Vietnamese. The categories are in place. Rich Farmbrough, 16:15, 26 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]

All ready to go. Rich Farmbrough, 22:41, 26 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]

I guess the lack of drama is putting BAG off... Rich Farmbrough, 15:37, 27 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Approved for trial (30 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Looks straight-forward enough. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 16:15, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trial complete. Here. Rich Farmbrough, 17:51, 27 March 2012 (UTC).[reply]

This one was wrong, but it was wrong because interwiki was wrong. Otherwise, looks fine.  Approved. No issues I can see; requested, simple, useful task. —  HELLKNOWZ  ▎TALK 18:03, 27 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
