Bug #: 33269
Summary: External links which start with "//" are rendered as
normal ELs and not as secure even if HTTPS
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.18
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows 7
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
On the English Wikipedia, at least, if you type something like
"[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&oldid=464887589]" and are
yourself browsing the site through https://en.wikipedia.org, then the external
link will show up with a normal EL symbol (a square with an arrow leaving it),
rather than with an HTTPS EL symbol (a padlock), even though the link will
direct you to an HTTPS URL.
