Pages redirected to hard redirects (Normal Namespace -> Special Pages/Interwikis) don't show the normal "(Redirected from X)" caption.
EG: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Comments which redirects to http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Special:FundraiserStatistics (See http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Comments?redirect=no for the redirect)
(For this to work you need http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgDisableHardRedirects enabled)
Version: unspecified
Severity: minor
I'm not sure why we want to display the “redirected from”… Could you
explain why this shouldn't be WONTFIX?

Because it's a redirect like every other one, just because it leads to a special page doesn't make it "special".
We have:
'wgDisableHardRedirects' => array(
'default' => true,
'donatewiki' => false,
'foundationwiki' => false,
),
but $wgRedirectSources seems to be left to the default, i.e. false: this is wrong, it should allows at least donatewiki and foundationwiki themselves.
'wgRedirectSources' => array(
'default' => false,
'donatewiki' => '!^https?://donate\.wikimedia\.org/!',
'foundationwiki' => '!^https?://(www\.)wikimediafoundation\.org/!',
),
??
'wgRedirectSources' => array(
'default' => false, 'donatewiki' => '!^https?://donate\.wikimedia\.org/!', 'foundationwiki' => '!^https?://(www\.)?wikimediafoundation\.org/!',
),
