{{ns: }} *should be* the preferred method. If you link to
something/wiki/Project:Foo then whoever clicks on it will go under a
redirection. People looking at the target of redirection on a chinese wiki
won't expect an english word.
[[Project:Foo|bar]] will always render with the link normalized (eg
'Wikipedia:Foo' or 'Википедија:Foo' or whatever, appropriately
URL-encoded).
At the moment at least, [[Project:Foo]] will *show* 'Project:Foo', just as
[[foo]] *shows* 'foo' but *links* to 'Foo'.
In general links in UI messages will be using descriptive link text; if they're
not, they probably ought to be changed to a friendlier text form.
