I'll have to agree with Romaine here. I do consider myself a more
advanced Wikidata user, but here I find myself at a loss. I want to
move an interwiki link from one interwiki data item to the other.
Currently my workflow for this seems to be this:

* I open the edit field on Wikidata item 1
* I delete the item there
* I hit save
* I open the edit field on Wikidata item 2
* I specify the language there
* I specify the page name there
* I am unable to hit save
* I get frustrated
* I open the Wikipedia page
* I click on the 'add interwiki' link
* I fill in a language
* I fill in a page
* I hit ok

Surely it should be possible to create a workflow that does NOT
include going outside Wikidata?
