*Recent changes*
- There are now default short aliases
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Namespace#Other_namespace_aliases for the "Project:" namespace on most wikis. E.g. On Wikibooks wikis, [[WB:]] will go to the local language default for the [[Project:]] namespace. This change is intended to help the smaller communities have easy access to this feature. Additional local aliases can still be requested via the usual process
