--- Comment #65 from Matthew Flaschen <mflasc...@wikimedia.org> --- (In reply to Gabriel Wicke from comment #62) > The .plainlinks class was normally used to mark this up, and applied to all > links inside a content block. How does this work with classes on each link? .plainlinks .link-https has higher specificity than .link-https, so it's easy to disable the icon for plain links, if desired.

PDF links are probably more common than audio/video, but still a minority. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
