--- Comment #4 from Krinkle <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Alex Monk from comment #2) > Why was this in the Wikimedia product? Because it has very little to do with MediaWiki core. I don't think this is something MediaWiki core would decide. It uses the canonical server url as configured by the system administrator of the server. If a wiki wants to promote HTTPS or even enforce by default, they should do so in general. I don't think it makes sense to do so for one very specific arbitrary part of the software (e.g. not page view, not e-mails, not API, but RCFeed, and only the IRC format..). If Wikimedia wants to make an exception for it, they could do so in wmf-config. Alternatively, since I'd rather not make breaking changes to IRCRCFormatter, this is probably something individual programs can do. For example, the Huggle or CVNBot could rewrite urls as HTTPS for their users if their user base is interested in that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
