Details
When this variable is true, hard redirects to a special page or to an interwiki link (an interwiki redirect) are disabled and automatically treated as soft redirects. This means that a user who views a page containing such redirect code will not be redirected but instead shown the link to the intended redirect target.
When this variable is false, such redirects use a HTTP 302 and have no "redirected from" link.
Even if this variable is false, interwiki redirects are only allowed for interwiki prefixes with iw_local set to 1 (true).
