Currently, Parsoid runs the following check to tell if an interwiki link points at the current wiki [1]: if ( interwikiInfo.prefix === env.conf.wiki.iwp.replace( /wiki/, '' ) ) { Obviously this is inadequate when the wiki name doesn't end in "wiki". (It's slightly unclear to me what "iwp" is; it claims to be an interwiki *prefix*, but some of the tests set it to "enwiki", so I'm assuming it's actually the DB name.) See http://parsoid.wmflabs.org/_rt/mediawikiwiki/VisualEditor:Local. Currently the first link is "mw:WikiLink" and the second is "mw:ExtLink", which is wrong. The PHP parser renders them identically as internal links. --- [1] http://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fservices%2Fparsoid.git/18e31a06252db3813fe844b62f15248289cdf4cb/lib%2Fext.core.LinkHandler.js#L106
The MediaWiki API needs to expose the contents of $wgLocalInterwikis via the API's meta=siteinfo&prop=interwikimap. Then Parsoid will be able to consume that information.

Ok, taking this. It's related to bug 69909. We should be using localinterwiki from the siteinfo.
