It seems like there's more than one problem here. Besides the things
should redirect to canonical url:
*Why are interwikis going to the non-canonical url. That seems like
the interwiki map is misconfigured. We can make both commons: and
wikidata: link to the proper url, why does "d:" have a lang subdomain?
*Why do edits not work on the non-canonical url (is it because the api
requests go to a fully qualified url based on $wgServer instead of of
a relative url? Is there a reason for doing this?)
