--- Comment #12 from Tisza GergÅ‘ <[email protected]> ---
We do fail more gracefully now (there is an error message, not just a black
screen of deatch which is what the OP was complaining about). Could look nicer
(we have some design notes in
https://wikimedia.mingle.thoughtworks.com/projects/multimedia/cards/299 ) but
that's very low priority.

I'll think about adding a fallover, but we have too many of them already (the
image loading can fail in other ways) and the logic is getting way too complex
for its own good. Also, while the image could be loaded without CORS, some of
the metadata API requests could not (we could probably recover from those
requests failing, though).

All that said, stripping CORS headers is horribly broken behavior and makes
zero sense from a security point of view. You should probably complain to the
manufacturer / whitelist Wikipedia domains.
