I'm working for a while now on the interlanguage links to pages that do not exist (also know as [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Interlanguage_Links/bad_target|bad target]]). Two types of items regularly show up, which aren't really bad targets. First, when a interwiki link written with a small letter it will refer to the correct interwiki page. I'm not sure if I need to re-capitalize such a link. Second, a interlanguage link to a section on a foreign wiki is seen as a bad target as well. These will some up again in a next batch, if the script isn't changed. [[User:Drbreznjev|Dr. Breznjev]] ([[User talk:Drbreznjev|talk]]) 09:43, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
:Hello, I'm not sure to well understand, for example, if French page doesn't exist, we look for a good link, anyway we delete the line. Same thing for English pages which don't exist. If interlanguage link is correct, we strike the line (e.g. [[:en:Will McCormack]] and [[:fr:Will McCormack]]). That's correct? --[[User:Sisyph|Sisyph]] ([[User talk:Sisyph|talk]]) 14:22, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
The [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Interlanguage_Links/bad_target|bad target]]-section lists those English pages with links to an another language (currently only [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Interlanguage_Links/bad_target/en/fr|French]]) where that specific page doesn't exist. For example, the English page [[Foxi Kethevoama]] interwikied to [[:fr:Foxi Kethevoama]], a page that doesn't exist. Therefore, such an interwikilink should be removed. However, the list also gives those items that have in essence correct interwikilinks, but have other issues.
The first one is an interwikilink starting with a small letter. For example, [[Harrespil]] interwikied to [[:fr:harrespil]]. The link interwikies to the correct page, but it is not in the correct format. Currently, I capitalize such a link, but I don't know if that is needed or not.
The second one is an interwikilink to a section in a page on the other language. For example, [[Bad_faith_(existentialism)]] interwikies to [[:fr:Existentialisme#La_mauvaise_foi]]. Because it discusses the same issues, these entries seem correct. Therefore, I do not change them. However, when a new dump should be analyzed with the same script, these entries will show up again.
