           Summary: Allow File talk (and File) tabs of files from shared
                    repository to link there
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: crosswiki
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: User interface

If displayed file is linked from shared repository, it shows ("transcludes")
the description from there. However, people get confused when they want to
start a talk and they usually start it on local project instead of on
repository.

Setting some $wgFileTalkTabsLinkToRepositoryIfFileShared (*) boolean variable
to set the "File talk" tab on shared files linking to repository instead would
be reasonable because it doesn't make a sense to start local talk on shared
file.

Additionally, the similar complementary $wgFileTabsLinkToRepositoryIfFileShared
(*) would make sense too.

I'm not sure if they should be separated or one $wg... for both namespaces
would work good enough. I'm in favour for one variable only, since I can not
find any example where two with different setting would take a place, but maybe
somebody will.

------------------------------
(*) yeah, maybe not that long ;-) just an example...
