I'll have to agree with Romaine here. I do consider myself a more
advanced Wikidata user, but here I find myself at a loss. I want to
move an interwiki link from one interwiki data item to the other.
Currently my workflow for this seems to be this:
* I open the edit field on Wikidata item 1
* I delete the item there
* I hit save
* I open the edit field on Wikidata item 2
* I specify the language there
* I specify the page name there
* I am unable to hit save
* I get frustrated
* I open the Wikipedia page
* I click on the 'add interwiki' link
* I fill in a language
* I fill in a page
* I hit ok
Surely it should be possible to create a workflow that does NOT
include going outside Wikidata?

Hi all,
Again, for already so many times, many users have complained on nl-wiki that
it is for them impossible now to add interwikilinks on Wikidata. They are
sick of all the changes all the time, especially if they experience the new
design as impossible to use, as it now is.
They are lost with the current design and can't add new interwikilinks. That
this pops-up so many times is a serious problem that needs a solution.
Wikidat is not meant for techno users only, but that is how many regular
users experience Wikidata. If regular users find themselves impossible to
add/update pages, the software needs a big change to re-enable them to work
with Wikidata again.
Ow, I am just the messenger... [1]
