Bug #: 41572
Summary: Wikilink to a repo item by sitelink
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: WikidataRepo
AssignedTo: wikidata-b...@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: aude.w...@gmail.com
CC: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org,

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
There is a need to be able to link in wikitext to stuff, an not via the ids.
For example:
[[wd:enwiki:France|France]] (maybe this would also be used externally, such as
on the wikipedias, with "wd" interwiki prefix to wikidata)
Whatever linking syntax needs to not conflict with the interwiki linking stuff.
or perhaps with parser functions or something:
{{#enwiki:France|France}}
This would be a redlink if Special:ItemByTitle/enwiki/France does not exist and
would be a blue link to the item that has the site link, if it does exist.
Such ability would make stuff like the Countries Task Force much easier to do:
http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Countries_Task_Force
It would be very nice to get this into the next deployment of the repo.
