Description

As an editor, I want to add sitelinks to pages to Wikitech on Wikidata.

Problem:
Sitelinks to Wikitech on Wikidata is not activated.

Steps to reproduce:

Go to PAWS (Q28838817)
Click "edit" on "multilingual sites"
Type "Wikitech" as the wiki, in order to add https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/PAWS as a sitelink

Acceptance criteria:

Wikitech is activated as a Multilingual site to accept linking of pages from https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/

Previous discussion:
See discussion on Wikidata:Report a technical problem#sitelinks to wikitech

Open questions:

Is Wikitech on a different cluster?

See T171143: Allow accessing Wikidata data in Wikitech

Just discovered this wasn't possible when trying to link Commons to Wikitech via Wikidata... (https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Clusters and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikimedia_servers should interwiki to each other) Any chance of it being implemented please?

This task was mentioned in the Bug Triage Hour at the Wikidata Data Quality Days 2022.

The relevant question is: are they on the same cluster as the other Wikimedia projects. If yes let's do it.

@LucasWerkmeister do you know?

Wikidata and Wikitech can access each other’s databases, at least (tested in shell.php). I’m still worried about the Wikitech stability concerns raised in T171143, though.
