This isn't the right place for this. WMF doesn't host the wikimedia.de wiki.

I note Daniel is CC'd on this bug

I have passed on responsibility for this a while ago, but i'll try to poke the relevant people, and help them fix it (I'm pretty sure this was my mistake).

Adding Silke Meyer (who is technically responsible) and Kai Nissen (who has been managing the site).

@sam: WMDE doesn't have a bug tracker for stuff like this, perhaps we could just get a product here?

I'll re-open the bug with the new assignee; if you feel it's really in the way here, close it again. We'll figure out another solution, then.

p858snake: What is "upstream" here???

Please file a separate ticket to discuss this.

The protocol type that has been used to get the file info from commons.wikimedia.org gets cached by the parser cache. This will happen vice versa, if the parser caches when requesting with https.

I customized the ForeignAPIRepo for commons to always use the secure protocol when requesting the commons API, but changing ForeignAPIRepo::getThumbUrl() to strip the protocol and make the src attribute protocol-relative seems to be the solution here.

I will provide a patch this weekend.

@MZMcBride: The other images that are not provided by commons were also changed to protocol-relative.

Patch needs rework.

Patch needs rework.

More than that, Anomie said "Your analysis of the problem in the commit summary is not correct". This bug is indeed misleading and is a duplicate of something the reporter already reported previously and that I had already clarified as bug 48133.
