Description

When using a link like [[xx:Title_page]] on a wiki whose language code is xx, we create an internal link and not an interwiki link, within MediaWiki.
But Pywikibot considers it is an interwiki link, and as a result, he moves this type of links to the bottom on the page; example using core/scripts/add_text.py

Okay I guess it happens because the prefix fr is defined via the interwiki map and thus considered an interwiki link. Now I guess the correct fix would be to compare the sites (aka if fr redirects to itself) and then don't consider it an interwiki link instead of using the language code.
