German
They have a
Trust network. Users have a "formal way of declaring their confidence in other users."
Portuguese
There is a system for de-sysopping people that is like the RfAs.
There are votes to decide which articles will be deleted. For an article to be deleted, it needs 2/3 of votes.
Lists have a different domain, called "Anexo". This featured was copied from the Spanish Wikipedia.
Polish
Fair-use images are not permitted, all images must be uploaded to Commons.
Users are generally not allowed to remove (blank) comments even from their own talk pages.
When citing sources at the end of the sentence the period is put after the reference tags, not before them.

68.5 percent (as of October 2022) of articles on Swedish language Wikipedia are bot-generated, mostly by
Lsjbot, covering topics related to animals and geography.
Content at risk of bias or
recentism has more often been deleted on svwp than on enwp, for example premature articles about ongoing events or content of
criticism/
reactions sections, although Wikipedia should reflect many POV:s. It is considered difficult for such a small group of active contributors to keep such content in balance. Names of Swedish or Finnish suspects or convicts are not unveiled before it is published in Swedish-language Media, which are restrictive with name-publishing before the verdict is final, also if it is published in international press.
In practice,
weasel words are often tolerated, although grammatical "fluff" should be replaced by explicit attribution according to the Swedish Manual of Style.
