Summary: self-interwikis shouldn't be removed
Initial Comment:
Interwiki.py removes every internal link which refers to the own language site. For
example, in en.wiki a link like [[en:article]] would be removed by the bot. This seems
logical (the main syntax for non-interwiki interlanguage links would be [[:en:article]]),
but the wiki-software doesn't interpret self-links as interwiki-links, so the
pywikipedia-bot should neither do that.
Here is an example:

Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r7065, 2009/07/14, 19:34:51)
