It is synced to the Wikimedia cluster upon request through the completion of a Phabricator ticket. Please post comments to the appropriate section (Proposed additions, Proposed removals, Requests for updates, Troubleshooting, or Other discussions); read the boxes at the top of each for an explanation. Completed requests are moved to the archives.
{{interwiki request}} can be used to assist in the making and managing requests.
Instructions to Meta-Wiki administrators
- Interwiki prefixes are case-insensitive.
- You may use global search to look for URL and interwiki link use. Suggest the use of {{interwiki request}} when making requests for removals and updates.
- You can check the interwiki.php file to see the current map as existing on the Wikimedia configuration files, and Special:Interwiki to see the current interwiki map as understood by MediaWiki.
- Updates to the interwiki map on-wiki will not take effect until the cached version on Gerrit is updated. This will happen by itself the next time a new wiki is created, but if you want it to happen sooner, you can request an update on Phabricator.
- Wikidata stores the mapped interwiki code as an item for domains in the interwiki map using interwiki prefix at Wikimedia (P6720). Additions, removals and updates should be noted against the corresponding item in Wikidata. Also to note the directions at Complex constraint violations/P6720

Proposed additions
[edit]
|
The Interwiki Map exists to allow a more efficient syntax for linking between wikis, and thus promote the cooperation and proliferation of wikis and free content.
This section is for proposing a new interwiki link prefix. Interwiki prefixes should be reserved for websites that would be useful on a significant number of pages ({{LinkSummary}} can help). Websites useful only to a few pages should be linked to with the usual external link syntax. Please don't propose additions of sites with too few pages or that contain copyright infringing content, such as YouTube. As a guide, sites considered for inclusion would:
Add new entries at the bottom of the section. When requesting a new prefix, please explain why it would be useful keeping the above in mind. Admins, please allow consensus to form (or at least no objections to be raised over a period of a few days) before adding new entries, as once added they are hard to remove from the many copies around the world. Before adding a new entry to the interwiki map, check whether any existing page names conflict with the proposed prefix. Requests for removal should be submitted on the talk page in the removals section and will be decided on by a Meta admin. |

- related Wikidata item: Fandom (Q17459)
An interwiki for Fandom currently exists as wikia: and its alias wikiasite: (along with specific interwikis to certain Fandom-hosted wikis), but there is no alias named "Fandom". Since the site has been renamed, I suggest allowing the new terminology to be used in links as well, to avoid confusion. Thanks, EpicPupper (talk) 00:07, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
- @EpicPupper: that seems to be half a story.
I have not buried myself into the history of fandom/wikia ins and outs, so please take a step back and look to concisely re-explain what has happened, what it needing to be achieved, and any politics that are at play so the community can make an informed decision. — billinghurst sDrewth 03:36, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Billinghurst, sure, here is some more information about the rename. In 2016, Wikia, a wiki hosting platform founded by Jimmy Wales and Angela Beesley Starling, underwent a major rebranding effort and changed its name to Fandom powered by Wikia 1. The name change was announced in a blog post on the Wikia website, which stated that the new name better reflected the platform's focus on communities and fan-created content. In a series of later changes from 2019-2021, all wikis migrated from wikia.org domains to fandom.com domains, and the Wikia branding was stripped completely 2. These changes were mostly uncontroversial and there was little negative feedback from the Fandom community following them. (Most opposers softened their tone a couple of years after the transition). Even if the community largely did not support these changes, that is irrelevant in this situation as "Fandom" is ultimately the official name of the website. Hope that helps! I think this change is relatively minor as it is merely adding an alias to the existing link, not a completely new one. EpicPupper (talk) 06:20, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
- Fandom is a generic noun - could that be a problem? "fandomcom", "fandomdotcom" or "fandomwiki" would be more specific. whym (talk) 11:34, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- Looking back, my comment above doesn't sound very meaningful. Let me try again. What I'm uneasy about is that this proposal is to replace a proper noun ("Wikia") to a generic noun which happens to be trademarked ("Fandom"). The change will increase ambiguity. It looks like when English Wikipedia moved the article, they added a disambiguation, probably because "fandom" is too ambiguous: en:Wikia→en:Fandom (website). whym (talk) 14:37, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
- I don't see the issue that you're trying to solve here and I don't see the ambiguity. If someone is making an interwiki link with the "fandom" prefix it's obvious that they're trying to link to the website containing a massive wiki farm, they're not going to be trying to link to a music album, a documentary or the abstract concept of "a group of fans". 192.76.8.66 16:31, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

The page "The Joker" in the wiki "batman" is at https://batman.fandom.com/wiki/The_Joker. We cannot generate such a url directly with "batman" and "The Joker" in different places so we rely on redirects at Fandom. These both work currently:
- https://community.fandom.com/wiki/w:c:batman:The_Joker
- https://community.fandom.com/wiki/c:batman:The_Joker
- I don't know whether both forms work for all Fandom wikis and will continue to work. Considering they ask their own users to write
w:c:at [2], I guess it's safest to use that form. We already say https://community.fandom.com/wiki/w:c:$1 for bothwikia:,WikiaSite:andWikicity:, and I haven't heard complaints about broken links. The proposal is simply to add one more prefix for this. The site has been called Fandom and located at fandom.com for years so it seems reasonable. Four prefixes for the same site is a lot but considering their size and Fandom branding, I don't think we should worry about having a fourth prefix. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:15, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- I'm still not sure if the new name is recognized well as a website name, without adding some sort of disambiguation. "Wikia" had 13 years (2006-2019), while "Fandom" had 8 years (2016-2014), according to en:Fandom (website). Maybe revisit in a few years? whym (talk) 10:08, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Revisiting this old request once again to propose the addition of :dcw to support Deoband Community Wikimedia. Our website uses MediaWiki software and the interwiki shortcut would make the link sharing very easier and much convenient. It currently has 51 links on Commons (many aren't shown due to a bug in LinksCard Extension), 8 on English Wiki, 426 on Meta, 39 on MediaWiki, and 14 on Wikidata according to this. We believe that having the interwiki shortcut would grow it more. Kind regards, signed, Aafi (DCW) (talk) 05:49, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Proposed removals
[edit]|
|
This section is for proposing that a prefix be disabled; please add new entries at the bottom of the section. Remember to explain why it should be disabled, particularly in view of the difficulty involved in correcting any use of the prefix (to generate a list of pages to fix: toollabs:pirsquared/iw.php). Please add {{Interwikicheck|interwiki code}} to top of the new section.
Interwiki map entries should generally be removed if the site (or the specific part of the site being linked to) is dead, broken, no longer hosts the content that was intended to be linked to. Legacy interwiki prefixes that never had any non-trivial uses at all can also be removed. Interwikis that would otherwise be removed but had too many uses to clean up may be repointed to Interwiki map/discontinued. When removing a prefix, also check if it's in interwiki.list (the default interwikis added by the installer when a new MediaWiki wiki is installed). That file is managed via Gerrit. Completed requests are marked with {{done}} or {{not done}} and moved to the archives. |

- On the other hand it's better practice to link to "gerrit:" anyway now that Wikimedia Gitlab et. al are a thing.

Wikimedia Quality
[edit]Interwiki request: Redirect..?
- prefix: quality • global-search
- related Wikidata item: Wikimedia Quality Wiki (Q33120967)
I noticed this as an entry at w:Help:Interwiki linking#Interwiki linking from and within Wikimedia, it's a closed wiki, all it gives you is a page with a manual redirect. Whatever way the {{Interwiki request}} template parses sort-of-kinda-internal URLs, it hates this one.
It has a "longform" IW link - [[quality:]]
Following the most relevant option at the redirect you end up at Wikiquality/Portal (actually located here on meta-wiki), which is itself a vestigial page with the {{historical}} template applied.
So, obviously not important, but maybe the target should be changed to save people the extra click.

- Why would we need a shorthand to link to a closed wiki that has basically no content? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 20:25, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
- We don't, but that is what we have already. It exists, I'm not requesting that it be created.
- There's basically no content at the Special:AllPages link for the wiki because "this wiki has been closed and its content has been moved to meta.wikimedia.org". Some of the content you're looking for is at the correct address for the shortcut's target, meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikiquality/Portal - but, since most of the content created for the project was as articles for a mailing list, the bulk of it is at listarchive:list/wikiquality-l@lists.wikimedia.org/latest.
- The project was seen as important, enough so that it was given a shortcut link, and its link was used as one of the 29 examples of prefix codes included at w:Help:Interwiki linking, so what we currently do actually have is a shorthand link which: has been used, can be found on pages of projects which are not closed and which will be seen by users, was functional when it was used, is now broken and points to a dead page.
- The shortcut should either be fixed or removed from that list, but removing it from that list won't remove it from anywhere anyone's ever used it, where it will remain an annoying broken link! One cookie (talk) 14:38, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
- "The shortcut should either be fixed or removed from that list". 100% agreed. I'd lean toward remove, as the quality wiki was closed a long time ago and I doubt there are any/many links, but that can be checked. Thorough response: thanks. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 17:54, 25 February 2024 (UTC)

I've fixed the template above. Don't feel comfortable removing this because we currently have a convention that each Wikimedia project has an interwiki link, which I don't want to break. I.e aa: exists too despite pointing nowhere. * Pppery * it has begun 23:59, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
dict, dictionary
[edit]dict • global-search dictionary • global-search
Currently points to a third-party dictionary. I just cleaned up several uses on enwiki that clearly intended to point to Wiktionary instead, and I would suggest these interwikis be updated in the same way to reduce confusion. * Pppery * it has begun 02:21, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
- Dictionary is also in the default interwiki map for new wikis (https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/blob/master/maintenance/interwiki.list). * Pppery * it has begun 18:56, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- I updated these to HTTPS in the mean time. * Pppery * it has begun 17:12, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
Troubleshooting

This section is for comments related to problems or corrections with the interwiki map (such as incorrect syntax or entries not functioning). This is not the section to request that a prefix be disabled (see Proposed removals above). |
imdb
[edit]Interwiki has diverged between the map here and interwiki.list. Interwiki.list currently has one "imdb" prefix going to http://www.imdb.com/find?q=$1&tt=on . Meta interwiki map currently has several (IMDbName, IMDbTitle, etc.). Presumably one of these should be updated to match the other one, but which? * Pppery * it has begun 19:35, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
