According to Google, HTTPS versions of our pages should have the rel=canonical
head tag that points to the http version. See

I can't remember that we ever had it like this, but if Google suddenly started
enforcing this, then it might explain the http-https google split and google
rank penalty that Wikid77 has been discussing on WP:VP/T.
