Hi,

Danny B. and I adapted the script used for non-existing wikis
(trunk/tools/web-scripts/missing.php) so it redirects to the respective
test wiki at Wikimedia Incubator. This would be a huge usability
improvement (however, only for languages configured in Wikimedia). For
Wikiversity & Wikisource, the "wiki does not exist" message remains,
because BetaWV and OldWikisource don't have a logical page naming system to
redirect to.

So I would like to ask if someone can review & deploy this (Commits are
here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki?path=/trunk/tools/web-scripts/missing.phpbut
it may be easier to just review current trunk version). That would be
great :)

The relevant bug report is
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30206 (the initial idea was
to do it via DNS/Apache config)

Thank you,
SPQRobin
