Thank you for RegEx clarification. So for Slovak we will use:
/^((?:á|ä|c(|d(|é|í|l(|l'|ó|ô|š|ú|ý|ž|[a-z])+)(.*)$/sD
do you see some misspelling there? ( From PHP point of view :-) ) 
Please, also positive note is welcomed!

Yes, Slovak language use more that mentioned set of characters. But we 
were unable to find mentioned regex - MagicWord::initRegex. Are there 
some more files to be translated?

Following array variables were added and translated to LanguageSk.php 
from Language.php:
- wgDateFormatsSk
- wgBookstoreListSk
- wgLanguageNamesEn

Which functions are necessary to add also to LanguageSk.php file to 
support those variables?

Here are our guesses (Are those correct?):
wgDateFormatsSk>
- added getDateFormats, changed En -> Sk:
	function getDateFormats() {
		global $wgDateFormatsSk;
		return $wgDateFormatsSK;
	}

wgBookstoreListSk>
- added getBookstoreList, changed En -> Sk:
	function getBookstoreList () {
		global $wgBookstoreListSk;
		return $wgBookstoreListSk;
	}

wgLanguageNamesEn>
- added getLanguageNames AND getLanguageName, changed En -> Sk:
	function getLanguageNames() {
		global $wgLanguageNamesSk;
		return $wgLanguageNamesSk;
	}

	function getLanguageName( $code ) {
		global $wgLanguageNamesSk;
		if ( ! array_key_exists( $code, $wgLanguageNamesSk ) ) {
			return "";
		}
		return $wgLanguageNamesSk[$code];
	}

Do we need to care about setting up of following variables (why, how)?:
- wgMetaNamespace - The meaning is "Wikipedia"?
- wgSitename - The meaning is the same "Wikipedia"?
Is it to reduce a duplication? Can we just replace variables with native 
Slovak translations?

Updated wersion is now stored in: 
http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/LanguageSk.php
Will be reviewed and than request for upload will be raised. (No testing 
- just carefully checked with latest Language.php and LaguageSk.php from 
CVS. Testing looks too complicated for me now!)

Still have problems ( not too urgent now :-) ) with international links 
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Perfect_article.
See first message in this thread.

Thank you for your help.

Best wishes
