Description:
Could the interwiki prefix [[mediawikiwiki: be added to mediawiki.org?
I'd like to add this prefix to http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents for exportation into fresh MediaWiki installations that don't have [[mw: defined.

Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement
I'd recommend against relying on any interwiki prefixes being present if you're trying to write portable pages...

All right, it does make sense. Therefore this is resolved as WONTFIX status; feel free to change this resolution.
Reopening. Right now, we're using ParserFunctions on [[mw:Template:mediawiki]]; this is worse than an interwiki link in terms of portability, especially given that mediawikiwiki is included in MediaWiki 1.10+.
If this gets added to the [[meta:Interwiki map]], it will get fixed the next time the map is generated.
So mediawikiwiki is in MediaWiki core as of 1.10 and on most WMF wikis as well, but not on MW.org
