Special:Statistics should link stats.wikimedia.org by default
Closed, DuplicatePublicFeature

Description

[[MediaWiki:statistics-footer]] exists on many wikis (often outdated) which won't be immediately affected by a change in default; nevertheless it would be useful to override it so that it links some relevant stats.wikimedia.org reports. The more specific links are, the better; but I'll need to figure our what URLs are easiest to construct reliably.

@Nemo_bis and @MarcoAurelio, what's the status of this task? Is it still needed?

Change 147505 abandoned by Nemo bis:
Special:Statistics default links to stats.wikimedia.org

Reason:
This patch is now more complicated than needed; WikiStats v2 can be linked with the domain name alone.
