Description:
Hallo!

I noticed a small anomaly in reaching Wikimedia Foundation sister projects from
"outside". This is the original request from
Bug 4285: provide accessibility of Wikipedia's sister projects trough wikipedia:
interwiki prefix

The interwiki prefix 'wikinews' works as all other "family prefixes"
(see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Gangleri/tests/interwiki/wikinews )

However
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikinews:Main_Page generates a *bad title*

but *not*
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikibooks:Main_Page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikiquote:Main_Page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wikisource:Main_Page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wiktionary:Main_Page

*eaven* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/n:Main_Page works fine.

At the top of http://idler.paivola.fi/betawiki/user:Gangleri are some navigation
links.

both the striked links m:n: and c:n: fail
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/wikinews:user:Gangleri
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/wikinews:user:Gangleri
and generate 'Bad title'

They are coded as
'meta:wikinews:user:Gangleri' and 'commons:wikinews:user:Gangleri'

*but* such links work for 'wikibooks', 'wikiquote', 'wikisource' and 'wiktionary'.

Now the issue is identified. It should be easy to fix. Thanks in advance!

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
