Hello,

I installed on my local server Mediawiki. When I tried to make a copy of some
articles from en.wikipedia.org I've found a bug related to templates. I copied
pages 1:1 using 'Edit' link in the aricles from wikipedia.org. Please have a
look at two pages copied 1:1 and differenceы between them:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_Country
and my
http://www.lomonline.de/wiki/index.php/Template:Infobox_Country

The template looks not good. Same with other pages:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laos
http://www.lomonline.de/wiki/index.php/Laos

I've tried several versions of Mediawiki, reinstall them. Nothing helping.

Thank you very much in advance.

firstly, your mediawiki version is outdated. You should upgrade it.
secondly, that template also use other templates that you need to copy too!

Plus, you'll need to remove the interwiki links. You haven't configured them on
your mw installation so it thinks they're normal links.
