Heiya,

anybody with a clue? An educated guess would be to insert the interwiki
prefix of the wiki I got the content from. However it may not be easy to
determine the interwiki prefix for an arbitrary wiki, e.g. not run by
WMF. Or do I just set up an an internal interwiki prefix on my wiki for
an external wiki an use this as an identifier for it. Hmm ...

Anyways I found the same question posted on German Wikipedia. Needless
to say: unanswered.

Cheers Karsten
