Are we going to keep the evil secret subdirectory as /w/ for all wikis, as before? There are an awful lot of URLs to old versions, contribs links, etc that are written that way, and I'd hate to break them.
What, specifically, uses the "/w" URLs? I couldn't see that the old system output them anywhwere. I have the new server laid out more sensibly, with international ones in mind. All should use the /wiki URL form in all cases.
