Topic on User talk:Shirayuki

Hello Shirayuki,
I hope to find you in good health during this curious period. In Help:Substitution, I added the links to English Wikipedia by w:en:The_page_link, because some of these links were previously in red. But I added "en" on purpose, putting myself from the translator's point of view, even if this approach takes up more space. It was an incentive to find a link like w:fr:The_same_page_in_another_language or w:hi:This_language. What do you think ? Of course, when the link is in a translation variable, there is no need to add "en".

Also, when you add "(in English Wikipedia)", you may have seen my translations as well. For example, w:Help:Parameter default is currently the only existing page, hence the additional precision.

Best regards

w:en:Help:Parameter_default causes an extra redirection.

Use :fr:Wikipédia:Accueil_principal instead of w:fr:Wikipédia:Accueil_principal to avoid redirections.

Use ...	instead of ...
w:	w:en:
:fr:	w:fr:
:hi:	w:hi:

Aaaah ! Ok. But what if it's another project (example: voy:ja:メインページ) ?
