             Bug #: 30206
           Summary: Non-existing wikis should redirect to Incubator
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://incubator.wikimedia.org
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: DNS
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
            Blocks: 28486
    Classification: Unclassified


The plan is to make xyz.wikiproject.org redirect to
incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wx/xyz if the wiki does not exist. Preferably
*all* language codes, but if that is not possible then only languages known to
Wikimedia.

(So for example af.wikinews.org -> incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wn/af)

The new welcome template will soon be deployed to incubator (hopefully).


After talking with Danny_B, Ryan Lane and Rob Halsell about this, it is
difficult but not impossible. Apparently we should wait until virtual hosts are
set up for Wikimedia.

It would be very useful if we could define the redirects ourselves, which will
apparently be possible in the future.
