the mediawikis (non-wmf, non-wikifarm/hive) table does not have a language column, cause we never bothered to enter a language manually for all of these and back then we did not have API fetching at least for all API wikis we can fetch "lang" (prefix, like "en") from API siteinfo, add it to db, and set a language name column to the one used in wikipedias where the prefixes match. (mysql console once) add the column to display.html for project mw
i am starting to put ALL of the info the Mediawiki API returns on a "meta=siteinfo" query into the database table for mediawikis. depending on the MW version there are different, more/less fields, but i am just getting everything i get from each and kept adding db fields until i did not get "unknown column" errors anymore. wikis not having a certain value will just have empty fields in db. now my question to you: here's an example which fields we can get: http://cn.18dao.net/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&maxlag=5 which of these would you think are interesting enough to add to the html tables? if you say "all", also have ideas on how to deal with the table getting to wide? really want to put php and dbversions in there as well? sortable for all...? should there be a separate "extended info" page for each displaying all, but just for one at a time when following a link from the current list? (that would be like just linking to the remote API but showing it in a slightly nicer way)
