Subject: Parsing error for Link instances
Original description:
I get a parsing error for Link.parse() e.g. for the following statements:

>>> import pwb; import pywikibot as wp
>>> l = wp.Link(u'w:de:Foo')
>>> l
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#135>", line 1, in <module>
    l
  File "pywikibot\page.py", line 2931, in __repr__
    return "pywikibot.page.Link(%r, %r)" % (self.title, self.site)
  File "pywikibot\page.py", line 3101, in title
    self.parse()
  File "pywikibot\page.py", line 3007, in parse
    % self._text)
Error: Improperly formatted interwiki link 'w:de:Foo'

using wikipedia: instead of w: the Link is wrong:

>>> l = wp.Link(u'wikipedia:de:Foo')
>>> l
pywikibot.page.Link(u'De:Foo', Site("de", "wikipedia"))
>>> 

It works right for wikt: and wiktionary:
>>> l = wp.Link(u'wikt:de:Foo')
>>> l
pywikibot.page.Link(u'Foo', Site("de", "wiktionary"))
>>> 
>>> l = wp.Link(u'wikt:de:Foo')
>>> l
pywikibot.page.Link(u'Foo', Site("de", "wiktionary"))
>>> 
>>> l = wp.Link(u'wiktionary:de:Foo')
>>> l
pywikibot.page.Link(u'Foo', Site("de", "wiktionary"))
>>>
