Special:NewItem doesn't correctly verify site ids
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG REPORT

Description

Currently Special:NewItem only checks whether a given site is known, but not whether we're allowed to link it.

Special:NewItem should check that the target site exists and is an allowed link target, otherwise it should claim that the site isn't known.
