TASK DESCRIPTION
  Wikimedia sites are apparently going https only, which means that any code 
using http:// may break.
  The 
[[https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/06/12/securing-wikimedia-sites-with-https/| 
announcement ]] is very light on details.
  
  https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/HTTPS#2015
  
  Both core and compat support using https, however they both have instances 
where a URL is created manually (not via Family methods), and that URL has a 
http:// protocol/schema.
  
  I suspect that the servers will still forward http:// URLs to https:// , but 
that needs to be confirmed.
  In any case, we should fix any instances where the code is using the Family 
methods to create a URL.
  
  Here is one regex to see some examples of the problem
  ```
  git grep '^[^#@]*http:\/\/.*wiki.*\.org'
  ```
