I've written a patch for this locally, and it's similar to what we already do for Swedish ("s:" isn't an interwiki on Swedish Wikipedia because they abbreviate "saint" as s:t), but that caused problems like T177913 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T177913> and probably others. > > Sounds doable, but how will interwiki links to the Mossi Wikipedia be added to enwiki then? AFAIK, "under the hood" Wikibase still inserts interwiki links with the `[[old:syntax]]`, it's just that it happens out of sight. If "mos:" only doesn't work at enwiki, then "m:mos:" would still work there, correct? (Currently, for example, both links to "[[m:ms:]]" and searches for "m:ms:" [in the search bar at the top of every page] work to get you to the Malay Wikipedia. But that search doesn't work on the Special:Search page.) OTOH, this wouldn't work if the prefix is disabled everywhere. Of course, adding local magical interwiki links of the kind provided remotely by Wikidata would not be possible, but would the ones provided by Wikidata still work?
