Description

An additional Link to "Multilingual Wikisource" appears in the left menu below "In other projects" on the main page of most wikis. I think this is a configuration error or is it part of a wikisource promotion tour?

What happens?
Look at the menu to the left of the page. A list of links is displayed:

In other projects
MediaWiki
Meta-Wiki
Multilingual Wikisource
Wikispecies
Wikibooks
...

What should have happened instead?
In my opinion the link to "Multilingual Wikisource" should not be there.

This is not a duplicate of T303113. It is the opposite. In short this report means: Do not add a link to "Multilingual Wikisource" on every wiki.

I think this is working as intended. Multilingual Wikisource (https://wikisource.org) is a separate, full-fledged Wikisource on its own and exists in addition to the language-specific Wikisource wikis like https://de.wikisource.org
