New internal links on /w/index.php?… pages are created relative to /w/ not /wiki/ in the CE and context menu and so fail to go anywhere
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

First add a link to an article on a new page (for example a link to "Bonjour").
You can open it with the link tool button "Open", it will work and open the link "https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/bonjour".
But if you open the link with Ctrl + Left click, it won't work, because it will open the link https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/bonjour.
