Broken 'share on Twitter' links

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

At the bottom of every published article there is link 'share on twitter', it takes me to [1]. This suggests to add a message at Twitter which says "Look what I found on Wikinews: http://enwn.net/+2874250 ". However the enwn.net shortener outputs a 404 error in Chinese..

Wikinews:Tech/Domain Names says enwn.net - Owned by ShakataGaNai

1) I can see MediaWiki:Gadget-enwn-shortener.js

2) MediaWiki:Common.js does this

if ( links[i].href.indexOf("http://twitter.com/?status") === 0) { /*isTwitter*/
links[i].href = "http://twitter.com/?status=" + encodeURIComponent("Look what I found on Wikinews: http://enwn.net/+" + mw.config.get( 'wgArticleId' ));
//enwn.net is owned by ShakataGaNai
}

this seems to be the original reason for the issue I started this discussion with.
