Hi all,
working on Wikipedia mobile app I realized that urls we want to share
are too long sometimes and this is a problem when your maximum number
of characters is limited. I think that Wikipedia should provide an own
shortner url service, like goo.gl, bit.ly etc.. There's just an
unofficial service for English Wikipedia:
enwp.org... Petan on IRC
proposed something like this:
wm.org/language/Article
for example
wm.org/en/Prague
Ok,
wm.org is not free actually, but we can think about something
similar... What do you think?
I suggested getting wi.ki a long time ago, but Kiribati charges
an exorbitant rate for their domains.
