Note, purging the actual thumbnail doesn't do much (well I suppose it changes
the url, which would cause the squid cache to possibly re-fetch it from the
image servers). But in essence
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/PopulusNigra2.jpg/250px-PopulusNigra2.jpg?action=purge
isn't that different then going to
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/PopulusNigra2.jpg/250px-PopulusNigra2.jpg?action=puppy
as far as i know

For me (with doing the /etc/hosts trick so the request goes through the europe
servers)
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/PopulusNigra2.jpg/250px-PopulusNigra2.jpg
returns the newest version of the file (as expected).
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/PopulusNigra2.jpg/250px-PopulusNigra2.jpg?action=purge
returns the old version of the file (which isn't that unexpected since
non-canonical thumb urls don't get purged, so earlier it returned the outdated
image, and since then it just kept the outdated image cached for the url with
?action=purge appended).

So in conclusion, this looks like everything is working properly now (?)
