Steps to replicate:
Nothing happens for me at this point.
If I open the same page in an incognito browser (Chrome or Safari), the File page for the PDF immediately opens.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
Tracked at https://wikimedia.mingle.thoughtworks.com/projects/multimedia/cards/497. Maybe the .jpg extension of the thumbnail confuses MediaViewer into thinking this is a format it can handle. (Did not happen with other unsupported file formats, though.)
Interesting bug. I can reproduce on my end, using Chrome on a Mac.
Normally, the Media Viewer doesn't support PDFs at all, so I am not sure where the problem is coming from.
Interestingly, it seems to work differently if the PDF slides are in image mode or in thumbnail mode.
So if I click on the current page, using this image script, nothing happens for me:
[[File:E3-QuarterlyReview2-April2.pdf|450px|Slide deck]]
But if I add a '|thumb' to make the slides appear as a thumbnail, then I can click on that thumbnail to access the file page.
[[File:E3-QuarterlyReview2-April2.pdf|thumb|450px|Slide deck]]
I prioritized this bug as 'normal' for now, since PDF slides represent a small percentage of files on our site.
