Intention: Add a link at the English Wikipedia to the Spanish Wikipedia. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Type a label/anchor. 2. Open the link inspector. 3. Paste in https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idioma_inglés 4. Exit the link inspector and save changes. Actual Results: It created an external link: [https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idioma_inglés Label]. Expected Results: It should have behaved the same as pasting the same link, but with HTTP:// at the start. It should have created an interwiki link: [[:es:Idioma_inglés|Label]]. Reproducible: Always
It would also be nice if this process: 1. Paste a URL 2. Press Command-K turned https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idioma_inglés into [[:es:Idioma inglés]] or [[:es:Idioma inglés|Idioma inglés]].
The conversion is done in Parsoid, not VE; moving there.
