The author is using an add-on called HTTPS Everywhere [0] for Firefox.

Importantly, the warning is coming from Firefox itself, not any add-ons, and
would still have appeared had they manually, or by any other method, accessed
the secure version of a Wikimedia site.

By the way, someone more familiar with the Wikimedia sites than me should keep
an eye on the HTTPS Everywhere ruleset for those sites, to make sure it is as
secure as possible (and, in particular, to make sure it is updated when the
sites are changed).
