Apparently the behavior of the red linked thumbs has changed


http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Rome&oldid=181221673#Universities
Includes an image thumb since deleted. The thumb shows a redlink, leading to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Upload?wpDestFile=MinervaSapienza.JPG

wpDestFile is an argument to Special:Upload of course, not Wikipedia:Upload.


Also, a second problem is that for editors it is now impossible to see the file
history of that page. It should probably only ever link to the upload
interface, if a file by that name did not exist at any point in time. For
editors, the description page for that file is very hard to reach now for
instance. You have to manually copy paste the image title and navigate there. I
also note that the "magnify" icon is not available in these thumbs.
