Description:
See [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#wikitech_bad_certificate]]
The wikitech: interwiki link points a user to [https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/], which is self-certified, giving errors on chrome and IE (Please test other browsers). The http: version [http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/] works fine.
To reproduce:
- Open any language wikipedia.
- type "wikitech:" (without quotes) in search bar and press go
- You should get a security error
I checked out the certificate, and it seems like wikitech issues itself a certificate, without being a Certificate Authority (CA)
To fix:
*Either get wikitech certified (this is a WMF issue)
*Or fix the interwiki mechanism so that it points to http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Main_Page
