Merged as https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/934432, it must have unlinked the issue here at some point

Addressed in Gerrit by using shlex to handle spaces in environment variables.
Looks like this issue dates back to T102465

So I'm still having a problem with export EDITOR="code -w", though it's no longer returning FileNotFoundError. Rather, it says ERROR: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'code -w'. When I remove the -w flag, it opens a blank tab in VSCode with a name like tmp******.wiki where the stars appear to be random characters, and proceeds along with the pwb script as if I had saved the file with no changes. I think it's because pywikibot can't handle this variable having a space and/or flag. I accept that VS Code may never work with pywikibot. Would you consider having the option of checking a different envt variable first before EDITOR, so I could do something like export PWB_EDITOR=nano so I don't have to change my default editor for every single application on my machine?

I think you'll find a shortener makes externally sharing Wikipedia/Wikimedia links a lot easier! It's super helpful for social media campaigns, conferences or hackathons where you want everyone to go to a page, etc.
There are open source shorteners so you can roll your own: https://opensource.com/article/17/3/url-link-shortener
Plus might be worth seeing if the Semantic Wiki person who owns http://wi.ki/ is amenable to selling at a low price. I bet they are :)
