Um, yes. Please don't do that. ;)
Your browser should be smart enough to give up after the first few.
Also, I don't see any reason why one would
redirect to another language.
If one reads the en wikipedia, I doubt s/he wants to be redirected to,
say, a chinese article. IMHO that should be restricted to wikipedia,
meta and the 9-11 site.
Well, what's the benefit in not being able to? (Once the kinks are
smoothed out, which you're more than welcome to do.)
Which reminds me -- not for redirecting, but for interwiki linking in
general. Do we want to allow convenient [[Site:Title]] linking to other
non-Wikipedia wikis?
Eg, [[MeatBall:InterWiki]] would get you to
http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?InterWiki
I imagine this would be of use mainly in discussion pages, though
perhaps there's some good reference material out there.
