::Interwiki redirects can cause some issues, though, particularly with globally renamed users who have a [[mw:Extension:GlobalUserPage|global user pages]]. Often, their old username is preserved as a redirect to what's technically a locally non-existent page. Thus, it shows up on [[Special:BrokenRedirects]]. A workaround, which I adopted and which seems to be fairly common practice, is to simply convert it to a [[Template:Soft redirect|soft redirect]], using some sort of interwiki soft redirect template. What I ''loved'', though, was your inclusion of little English Wikipedia and MediaWiki logos to the right of any interwiki links. I assumed this is done through the interface in '''MediaWiki:''' namespace, but just wondering which file(s) control that. Very cool! Love that, as it provides the user/reader a visual ''cue'' that they're going to be leaving Electowiki. [[meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 17:17, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
