:We should not delete it. Because of the way the interlanguage links work, it should remain as a redirect from the English title to the German title. In summary, an English page with title "ABC" ''automatically'' has a link to "DE:ABC". Then DE:ABC has a redirect to "DE:DEF", which would be the page with the correct German title.

This is an area where you leave requests for the WikiMagisters. We'll watch this space regularly, and remove the requests once they are responded to.

Please make your requests in the following format:

== My Title ==

[[Example]] - place the article name in doubled square brackets.

[[User:Example]] - if the request is for some change to your account, link to yourself as [[User:Your User Name]].

Descriptive text: follow it with some text explaining what you want us to do.

Signature: end your request with four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (this will be replaced with your signature, that is, with your username and a date stamp).

Place new requests under this line. Don't remove anyone else's - just put yours after theirs.


German pages

What about pages in german (or other)language? Is there a special format I have to follow?

Thanks for an answer. Best --Publius Flavius Barbatus 03:12, 27 April 2006 (CDT)

Pages in German would go in the "DE: namespace". For example, the German version of the page "Ager Publicus (Nova Roma)" would be "DE:Ager Publicus (Nova Roma)" If the title is not in Latin, for example, "FAQ", you would create the page (in the DE: namespace) with whatever the German title would be and also create "DE:FAQ", which would be a redirect page that points to the actual German page.

Thanks for the answer. Is it helpfull and necessary - surely wise - to use the language bar for such a german page? --Publius Flavius Barbatus 06:24, 27 April 2006 (CDT)

DE:Dictatorship of MMDCCLII (Nova Roma). I switch it to correct title: DE:Diktatur von MMDCCLII (Nova Roma). --Publius Flavius Barbatus 04:23, 2 May 2006 (CDT)

We should not delete it. Because of the way the interlanguage links work, it should remain as a redirect from the English title to the German title. In summary, an English page with title "ABC" automatically has a link to "DE:ABC". Then DE:ABC has a redirect to "DE:DEF", which would be the page with the correct German title.
