Secure.w.o in js on wiki sites

Today, secure.wikimedia.org was offline for a bit and, in my tour of
Village Pumps after the rollout of 1.19, I saw some problem reports that
were the result of secure.w.o but were mistakenly attributed to 1.19.

Using Google, I found several instances refering to secure.w.o. I can't
fix these, but maybe some of you guys can.

The reference in this script is still useful for people that continue
to use s.w.o; it shouldn't break anything even if s.w.o is down.

What about a 301 redirect from s.w.o to the new URLs so that we can
clean up all the references to s.w.o without breaking anything?

Best regards,

The reference is used only for people that use s.w.o. But we already
have a script in preparation to be used for everyone, normalising any
hyperlinks to wmf projects regardless of wgServer.

We really should, personally want, stop using the secure.wikimedia.org
domain. Any occurence should be replaced on sight :-)

These have all been taken care of now.

Either
* the redundant code removed
* the fix adjusted/merged with the protocol-relative url case.
* Or some were left alone if they were specifically targetting
secure.wikimedia.org and are fine doing so as long as the other case is
protocol-relative.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

Sure, that's exactly why I suggest we redirect s.w.o to the new URLs.

As long as we still provide s.w.o, it seems to me that we shouldn't
make it less secure.
