Can we change MediaWiki:Mw-mainpage-url to Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki?

Alireza Ivaz Raised this on MediaWiki_talk:Mw-mainpage-url.

So that users can directly see their own languages when open the main page.

Translation pages should be changed or deleted. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex?prefix=MediaWiki%3AMw-mainpage-url&namespace=0

I think you misunderstood! I meant to change the content of the message. Instead of the current content, put the Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki link. This will help users navigate to the home page in their own language; For example, I, who have chosen Persian in my preferences, go to the Persian translation of home page, not English. (I'm sorry, this text translated by GoogleTranslate).

If your language in preferences is farsi, the sidebar should display items in farsi language and use the MediaWiki:Mw-mainpage-url/fa message, which points to the correct language.

Of course, it would be much simpler to point to Special:MyLanguage/MediaWiki without the need to create all language subpages of that messages. But the current situation should work nonetheless.
