Currently, fresh installations do not have any of the commonly used interwiki links for MediaWiki sites. The addition of the following will also allow the PD Help Page project to produce a pre-packaged Help system for inclusion in MediaWiki releases. The inclusion of these interwiki's would also provide an instant link for newly installed wiki's to the project's homepage and chief documentation sites. Suggested inclusions - mw: linking to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/$1 meta: linking to http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/$1 manual: linking to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$1 Current list - http://svn.wikimedia.org/svnroot/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/maintenance/interwiki.sql
Created attachment 3400 [details] Patch adding mw: and meta: interwiki prefix This patch adds the mw: and meta: interwiki prefix as requested. I have opted not to include manual: as this can easily be done via mw:Manual: and IIRC this is not done on any of the other entries. I am also not sure whether to class it as local or not, I have presumed not.
"mediawikiwiki" prefix added in r20825, "mw" is too short (could be mistaken for a language code), and "meta" is a duplicate of "metawikipedia".
