Hello, you can link to other wikis with [[mh:subdomain:page name|display title]]

The [[mh:subdomain:page]] syntax doesn't work for redirects, though. I tried #REDIRECT [[mh:subdomain:Page]] here. Is there an existing solution for this too?

@Gjum We should not be encouraging interwiki link requests on Phabricator, as this is within the jurisdiction, entirely, of interwiki administrators and stewards, both of whom are community-elected. I'm not sure what you are trying to do. Which prefixes are to be added to which which wiki, and why hard interwiki redirects? If the sole purpose of your second wiki is to create hard interwiki redirects to the other wiki, then that's an argument in favour of deleting your wiki. These sort of things should be used whereby you link, using interwiki or interlanguage prefixes, which you need to clarify, on a given page, not creating hard interwiki redirects to a page in another language on the other language wiki

Changing to invalid. Please clarify your request, and request here.

After consulting with @Reception123, I'm making a minor change in status per Phabricator definition, "Invalid: Tasks that are inappropriate for Phabricator and the request should have been made somewhere else," since it is invalid as interwiki prefix requests should be handled on community noticeboard or on the user talk page of any interwiki administrator
