Special:CreateItem doesn't handle site and page params
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

User is offered the option to "create an item" on Special:ItemByTitle if no item match is found.

The link is such as:

http://mywikidatarepo.com/index.php?title=Special:CreateItem&site=enwiki&page=Iceland

The Special:CreateItem page doesn't do anything with the parameters. Lower priority but nice to have might be to use the parameters to pre-populate the form.

Wonder if we should have a Special:LandingPage where a bunch of sitelinks are resolved into a disambiguation list, and Special:CreateItem can be called from this, and there translating from sitelinks into language-label-pairs would happen.
