Summary: Omit all terms before colons in links like
[[:w:pl:foo|]]
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.16.0beta3
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: llam...@gmail.com
If there's only one term before a colon in a link ending with |]] it's not
displayed:
[[:w:foo|]] -> foo
But if there are more of them only the first one is omitted:
[[:w:pl:foo|]] -> pl:foo
It's an inconvenience on Wikimedia Commons mostly, where image descriptions
link to articles on Wikipedias. When linking to en.wiki you may use this
abbreviation, but to any other wiki - you need to copy-paste the whole title.
So, obviously, my proposal is to make link like
[[:a:b:c:foo|]]
in displaying:
foo
