A small issue in this proposition: sub-subdomains are not currently covered by the https certificate.

What about inserting another domain just to prevent confusion and to
keep current redirects, which would ONLY allow api, such as

commons.api.wikipedia.org

the *.api.<project> would just be some kind of universal api gateway
for all domains

Please share your comments.


commons.wikipedia.org already redirects to commons.wikimedia.org (for
historical reasons, maybe), so that has to be considered.


Yes, it redirects. But to solve the problem I'm describing, the API would
need to be served from commons.wikipedia.org.


I think what
you're proposing is also kind of confusing and I'm wondering if there
aren't better ways to approach the problem.


I'm open to suggestions, but I'd rather not wait until CentralAuth gets
completely redesigned and rewritten.
