Interwiki links and shortcuts

You can make links that lead to Wikipedia's sister projects, and a few other places, without the arrow that accompanies external links. Here's how:

Prefix	Example	Shortcut
`[[wikibooks:]]`	wikibooks:	`[[b:]]` b:
`[[meta:]]`	meta:	`[[m:]]` m:
`[[mediawikiwiki:]]`	mediawikiwiki:	`[[mw:]]` mw:
`[[wikinews:]]`	wikinews:	`[[n:]]` n:
`[[wikiquote:]]`	wikiquote:	`[[q:]]` q:
`[[wikisource:]]`	wikisource:	`[[s:]]` s:
`[[wikipedia:]]`	[[wikipedia:]]	`[[w:]]` w:
`[[wiktionary:]]`	wiktionary:	`[[wikt:]]` wikt:
`[[commons:]]`	commons:	`[[c:]]` c:
`[[wikidata:]]`	wikidata:	`[[d:]]` d:
`[[wikispecies:]]`	wikispecies:	`[[species:]]` species:
`[[google:]]`	google:	used for google queries
`[[mediazilla:]]`	phabricator:	used with bug numbers

The long form doesn't work within the same project. The shortcut works everywhere.
