Add wikimedia.com to wgNoFollowDomainExceptions
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Looking to add enterprise.wikimedia.com to global allow list so it does not receive rel="nofollow" attribs on its links in wikis.

I believe that's in this array https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/source/mediawiki-config/browse/master/wmf-config/InitialiseSettings.php$8448 but not familiar w/ codebase enough to know if that's the single control point for that.

Event Timeline

Change 773302 had a related patch set uploaded (by Arlolra; author: Arlolra):

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Add wikimedia.com to wgNoFollowDomainExceptions

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/773302

Parsoid doesn't add any nofollows (see T186241) so I'm assuming that this should be targeted at MediaWiki-Parser, if anything.

Here's a link without a nofollow https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Arlolra/sandbox&oldid=1080007918

The parsercache isn't purged but, going forward, new revisions will link similarly
