This is how Interwiki links show up or the name of the language itself?

regards Dundak

Yes indeed.

Niklas should try to generate
the LanguageHsb.php and MessagesHsb.php based on
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=LanguageHsb.php&oldid=274514

That file is using {{grammar:}}. To see how to do it please take a look at
Bug 5862: Update of Belarusian messages translation (MessagesBe.php)
http://nike.users.idler.fi/betawiki/project:LanguageBe.php_and_MessagesBe.php

You are welcome to post updated message files at
http://nike.users.idler.fi/betawiki/project:LanguageHsb.php_and_MessagesHsb.php
and
http://nike.users.idler.fi/betawiki/project:LanguageDsb.php_and_MessagesDsb.php

Sorry: You asked a question.

The questions is as follows:
How should the names apear in the "In other language" section?

These names would be shown also

  • at [[meta:special:SiteMatrix#hsb]] and [[meta:special:SiteMatrix#dsb]]
  • in [[special:Preferences]] when selecting a user interface.

dsb – dolnoserbski

I hope that developers are only lazy (or forgot to create it) and there are no technical problems
to create hsb.wikipedia.org!

I would also like to encourage the developers to create dsb/hsb.wikipedia.org.
Since there is already so much work done it should commence its work very soon.

http://hsb.wikipedia.org/ has been created on September 30, 2006.

But http://dsb.wikipedia.org/ is still missing! Been forgotten?

Lower sorbian was not listed as approved, so it was not created.
See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Approved_requests_for_new_languages

I closed this request. New wikis must currently be approved by the language subcommittee; when dsb.wikipedia is approved, they'll open a new request themselves.
