There is one WikiSpecies; there are many Wikipedias, each in a different
language. For instance:

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danaus_(genus)

        http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danaus

        http://fy.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danaus

        http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%94%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B8%D0%B4%D1%8B_(%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B4)

For more, see the "languages" section (usually in the left-hand
sidebar). Note the two-letter language code forms part of each URL.
