enwp.org currently redirects to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page . So I guess from this that WMF has control of it.
Could we set it up as an automatic URL shortener service?

They're all the ones worth doing I can think of. Maybe also some for the logs.
They would be useful for feeds & links on microblogging things.

I think what greg's trying to say, is that the WHOIS record for that domain indicates that it is not a WMF-owned property....

It's owned by a Wikipedian. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tl-lomas/enwp.org
According to past emails I have on this, the German chapter owns dewp.org and Walter Vermeir owns nlwp.org and frwp.org. These ones don't work as shortcuts though. dewp.org is an error page and the others redirect to wikkipedia.be.

I strongly recommend against making links through *any* unofficial alternate domain, whether WMF owns it or not. (Perhaps especially if WMF owns it!) Sooner or later someone will forget to renew it and it'll become a squatted spam site. :)
