local alias for wikidata
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

In my opinion adding possibility to have local alias will help users to don't switch keyboard language for linking to wikidata namespace
i.e. now for addressing to [[Special:CreateItem]] user should use Latin keyboard!
or for main page they should write [[Wikidata:صفحهٔ اصلی]]
also [[صفحهٔ اصلی]] or [[Main page]] doesn't have any redirect to [[Wikidata:صفحهٔ اصلی]] or [[Wikidata:Main_page]]


Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement

Can we ask if translatewiki.org can include our Special pages too here?

https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?language=en&module=namespace&title=Special%3AAdvancedTranslate

We simply need the translations in the alias files for the Special pages, then this should work.

How is this handled on Commons? Are different languages with the same translation going to be an issue?
