The following api request done internally in the MediaWikiSite core class fails on the wikidata beta deployment instance: http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=info&redirects=1&converttitles=1&format=json&titles=Keyboard+Cat This means that site links cannot be saved.
That is the same issue as bug 45868 which is that the instances can not access the public IP pointed by *.beta.wmflabs.org because of NAT.
The workaround is referenced in bug 45868: iptables -t nat -I OUTPUT --dest 208.80.153.219 -j DNAT --to-dest 10.4.1.133
I have added a summary on bug 45868, the workaround and the above iptables trick. Lets follow up on that bug report :-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 45868 ***
