On meta or other sites, [[:en:|English Wikipedia]] and [[en:|English Wikipedia]] work as a interwiki to the main page of EN WP. Even [[en:]] is okay. On the other hand, [[:en:wikt:|English Wiktionary]] nor [[:wikt:en:|English Wiktionary]] doesn't work as the above. To point the Main Page of EN WS, we need to type [[:en:wikt:Main Page]]. It is very annoying for me, specially I need to make a list of some projects. Can anyone modify the rule of interwiki rule and can [[:en:wikt]] work as same as [[:en]]?
I really don't understand this bug. What exactly are the cases here? What's missing? Why aren't you including a page name in your links -- that appears to be likely to cause problems?
(In reply to comment #0) > Can anyone modify the rule of interwiki rule and can [[:en:wikt]] work as same > as [[:en]]? a) [[:en:wikt]] is not usefull as it does not end with a colon. Neither is [[:en]]. b) please note that you can use [[wikt:]] and [[:wikt:]] on [[meta:]]. If this is what you want please change the bugs status. c) Please note that [[wikt:en:]] and [[wikt:en:]] would not generate valid links. You should use [[wikt:en:Main_Page]] and [[wikt:de:Main_Page]] (or [[wikt:de:Hauptseite]]). Regards Reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
Okay folks, I concur ;-)
REOPENing the bug and marking as INVALID (because the request has not / could not be FIXED) (In reply to comment #2) > b) please note that you can use [[wikt:]] and [[:wikt:]] on [[meta:]]. Please note this is a workaround for WIKT:EN *only*. For WIKT:FR you need to use [[wikt:fr:Main_Page|foo]] or [[wikt:fr:Page d'accueil|bar]]. > c) Please note that [[wikt:en:]] and [[wikt:en:]] would not generate valid > links. You should use [[wikt:en:Main_Page]] and [[wikt:de:Main_Page]] (or > [[wikt:de:Hauptseite]]). A similar restriction is the subject of bug 2406: links as [[wikipedia:de:]] will fail at non wikimedia foundation wiki Closed by Brion as INVALID. best reagrds reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
