There are two MediaWiki issues, but I don't think that they are too complex:

- Links inside of encyclopedia:xyz: name space should be like [[page
name]] not like [[encyclopedia:xyz:page name]].
- Page names inside of that name space should be like "Page Name", not
like "Encyclopedia:Xyz:Page Name".
