--- Comment #5 from This, that and the other <[email protected]> ---
You could ask: what's the use for local interwikis? This was evidently a bug in
MediaWiki's handling of local interwiki links. A local interwiki link should be
treated as if it didn't have the local interwiki prefix on it in the first
place, and if it happends to contain an interwiki prefix, then so be it.

One of the main ues cases for this is cross-wiki code reuse/transclusion. A lot
of these links ([[m:w:Foo]]) actually exist on Meta, but due to an unusual
configuration, this bug never showed up there.

By the way, I'm pretty sure Parsoid never had this bug, so hopefully nothing
should need to be changed.
