Wait, so you're using prefix be: like it was the prefix for oldwikisource?!?
And what will you do if be.wikisource is created? Nah, this is just another
workaround. We need a definitive solution, or oldwikisource will always remain
"a son of a lesser God".

What's wrong in doing a simple replace "[[oldwikisource:" ->
"[[:oldwikisource:"? They're probably not many, a bot can do it quickly.
