MediaWiki thumbnail URLs are fragile and not meant to be used as an API.
Mainly because of T74328 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T74328> but
also because finding the size part is not always trivial (e.g. for a JPEG
the URL could look like
upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Cernfounders.jpg/qlow-1024px-Cernfounders.jpg
).
