    Moving to GetWiki is an upgrade. Testing more damaged Mediawiki isn't, in the view of trolls anyway. Among other things the interwiki link standard is retarded so everything must point back to Wikipedia. This is wrong. Is there a fix for this within MediaWiki? And why isn't the proper standard wiki URI supported by default on a new MediaWiki install? Is this another attempt to make it easy to refer to Wikipedia articles and hard to refer to others (by ensuring their URIs will be impossible to remember for the average user, and constantly shifting with each release of Mediawiki?).
