By default no language codes are defined as interwiki link prefixes. Wikipedia defines a bunch for linking between Wikipedia's projects. If you're not Wikipedia, then these aren't probably what you want... but you can load them from maintenance/wikipedia-interwiki.sql. -- brion vibber (brion <at> pobox.com)

RE: The interlanguage link just does not work in my MediaWiki..
Thank you! I've solved the problem. I think I 'll never find out the answer without your kind help.I 've another problem with regard to the multilanguage wiki. Is it required to build several separate wiki(with different domainname, separate database and separate MediaWiki sourcecode files) to support multilanguage? i.e. I have to create several different web directories for each langauge, to bind each directory to a sub-domainname, and to install MediaWiki in each web directory with different language setting in the LocalSettings.php ? Couldn't they share one database and one web directory ? Thank you very much! Collin

Linking to pages with namespaces, munging of the searchindex, and the messages pulled from the MediaWiki namespace are dependant on the language setting of the wiki. These wouldn't mix very well in a single database at present. -- brion vibber (brion <at> pobox.com)

RE: The interlanguage link just does not work in myMediaWiki..
Dear Brion, Thank you for your help! I 've another question. May I set the namespace URL for each language to the same URL like "www.mywiki.org", i.e. the namespace URL for en is www.mywiki.org, and the namespaces URL for fr, de, zh, etc. are all www.mywiki.org. I 've tried this way. It seems to work well, except that the interface langauge is always English(will not change as different language is selected.). I wonder if this way has an potential danger. If no, may I make do this: to include languageXX.php according to the which domain name(xx.mywiki.org) is used by the user to access website, while every domainnames(xx.mywiki.org) are bound to the same web directory. Is this way OK to accomplish a multilanguage wiki with a single database and web directory? Thank you for your advice! Collin(Continue reading)

Yes, this means that it is not recognized as an interlanguage link.
Now I wish I had not reacted here, because I know hardly anything
of the code, there are people who know much more.
Do you have a file wikipedia-interwiki.sql, and is 'zh' defined
