Fantastic, thanks!

Could you put linking to the user's preferred language (Accept-Language header?) on the backlog?

Hi Nick,

You are lucky, that feature has been released this week:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:GoToLinkedPage

For instance

Cheers,

Hello,

We have been working on associating every episode of BBC Desert Island Discs to a Wikipedia page about that person.

Example:

Since we created some of the links to Wikipedia, those pages have changed into disambiguation pages. Is it possible to link to a Wikipedia page using the Wikidata ID, via some kind of redirect URL? Thus ensuring that we continue to link to the correct article?

Ideally it would even link to the users preferred languageā€¦


Thanks!

nick.
