QUESTION
I run a Wiki hosted in a Wikifarm, using MediaWiki.
I'd like to know if hotlinking an image (not being in Wikipedia Commons) is possible:
Showing this image without downloading it.
Would I need special extensions to do that, or is it simply impossible to do?

Answered 2019-Nov-18 at 04:04I'm not sure what you mean with "showing an image without downloading it". It you mean a similar functionality as InstantCommons (showing an image from Wikimedia Commons on your "local" wiki), then this still needs to be downloaded somewhere.
If you mean such a functionality, you can, of course, use images of another wiki. There're multiple ways of doing it, all of them can be configured using the $wgForeignFileRepos config variable. This allows you to define one or more file repositories, which are not your own wiki (in fact, instant commons is using the same configuration to actually do it's magic).
You could, e.g., use the API of your other wiki to use the images from there:

Install wikifarm
You can use wikifarm like any standard Java library. Please include the the jar files in your classpath. You can also use any IDE and you can run and debug the wikifarm component as you would do with any other Java program. Best practice is to use a build tool that supports dependency management such as Maven or Gradle. For Maven installation, please refer maven.apache.org. For Gradle installation, please refer gradle.org .
