[Wikimediauk-l] Abbott and Holder: Picture needed (near British Museum)

2019-02-08 Thread Andy Mabbett
If anyone is visiting, or near, the British Museum please could they
take some photos of the frontage, shop-sign and (if they allow it)
interior of Abbott and Holder:

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbott_and_Holder

which is just round the corner, on Museum Street?

Not here; for me it resolves as http://qrpedia.org/  and times out.


With browsers now 'doing their own thing' in relation to sites that do 
not default to https these days it's a bit of a roll of the dice just 
what using the raw domain gets forwarded to from the sending end. At 
least the pigging annoying 'this site is not secure' messages have been 
curtailed somewhat but doesn't chrome now complain? I rolled back 
firefox until they 'repaired' that ... http is still perfectly 
acceptable for simple public information sites?


The bottom line is that the handing of the domain needs fixing so that 
http://qrpedia.org/ and probably http://www.qrpedia.org/ both forward to 
https://qrpedia.org/ to get around the various 'default' ways browsers 
handle 'qrpedia.org' ...

Hi Andy (et al).

Jo and I are looking at this and trying to sort it out. Its taking a  bit
of time to fully debug and resolve this - but we are hopeful to share
progress soon.

Sorry that this issue is persisting; its obviously not a good situation and
we want to get it fixed.

Tom

The bare "qrpedia.org" works fine too as it redirects to the https version. I'm 
not sure what the solution is for the http version, other than redirecting 
people towards using https.

That is indeed the case; but the http:// version is supposed to work, too.

The http:// version and the bare "qrpedia.org" are linked to by many external 
websites; and are no doubt also in print sources. This affects more than just 
the one person who tweeted.

Hi Andy,

I think someone pointed out the other day that it's only when you use 
http://qrpedia.org/ that it has problems. If people use https://qrpedia.org/, 
it seems to work fine. I haven't seen the tweet, but maybe you can let the 
relevant people know?

Still timing out.

This is a (supposedly) live, public-facing service.
