These currently serialize as external links: echo '<link rel="mw:WikiLink/Language" href="http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/">' | node parse --html2wt [[http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/]] echo '<a rel="mw:WikiLink/Interwiki" href="http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/">ko:</a>' | node parse --html2wt [[http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/|ko:]] We should probably match absolute URLs against the list of patterns and serialize to the locally defined interwiki / language prefix when that is defined.
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/81413/ adds tests for this. The html2* portion is currently failing and blacklisted.
DOM spec change plans after some discussion on IRC: 1) mw:WikiLink/Interwiki becomes mw:ExtLink/Interwiki, and we'll automatically detect interwiki prefixes in new/modified mw:ExtLink content. 2) mw:WikiLink/Category becomes mw:PageProp/Category as these are not really links. They don't render at all in the page, don't accept a caption etc. 3) mw:WikiLink/Language becomes mw:PageProp/Language - same as with categories. We should also revisit the various mw:ExtLink/* variants. Some of them are very syntax-focused without adding real information for external users.

In bug 53505 I developed a method for pure-CSS external link numbering ([http://example.com]), so we can also go ahead and simplify all mw:ExtLink/* variants to just mw:ExtLink, and remove the numbering logic in Parsoid. That means that current mw:WikiLink/Interwiki will go straight to mw:ExtLink.

This has now landed, but is not yet deployed in production. Will probably go live next week.
