Unfortunately, some of those aliases won't be possible. For instance, mw is already an interwiki prefix for mediawiki.org globally, and it's not possible to use that same string for something else (as that would make [[mw:foo]] ambiguous).
Same issue applies with the following aliases:
The rest look okay on the first look -- but I didn't check very carefully. Generally, a string may not be a valid ISO language code to be usable as a prefix, and it must not be currently present in the interwiki map to be usable as an alias.
Please figure out some other aliases instead of the ones I highlighted. Thanks!
@Urbanecm Thank you for the clarification. I've restarted the discussion. WP seems to be universally agreed upon, so we can start with that - the other aliases can be agreed upon later, after further discussions.
Looking over aliases for other wikis in InitialiseSettings.php, I noticed a few discrepancies:
As an afterthought, maybe a good change would be to standardize interwiki behaviour to avoid these kinds of issues, e.g. only links with a colon as a first character ( [[:m:Link]] ) should behave as interwiki links and map to other projects, while regular links ( [[M:Link]] ) should point to an alias?
Okay, discussion has died down for over a week now.
There doesn't seem to be a universally agreed solution, so let's implement all the suggestions, redundancy never hurt anyone:

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Add namespace aliases to hrwiki
Reason:
Something weird is happening with Gerrit's web interface, I'll just let someone else handle this properly...
For example C conflicts with Commons, so what is written above will not work afaiu.

I don't see anything weird?

Thank you, I missed that one. Let's do CT and RCT then. I edited my comment above.

There were random spaces being added, the cursor caret was always editing a few lines above from where it was placed, one of the patchsets was not saved, ...
