I just tried that out with an external domain on my wiki, and it works very well: sasm.at/244 (11 characters) will now redirect to säsongsmat.nu/ssm/Recept:Sl%C3%A5nb%C3%A4rssaft_%C3%A0_la_Gusem%C3%A5la (71 characters) If someone wants to use it the same way, I wrote a short tutorial here: http://blog.xn--ssongsmat-v2a.nu/2012/02/20/creating-a-url-shortener-with-mediawiki/ Leo Wallentin _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
