Description billinghurst 2012-01-27 10:13:01 UTC
By use of the protocol relative urls, one is able to create urls that circumvent the blacklist

eg. [//skiptest.info skiptest]] will form a clickable functional url

I have tested at meta against the global spamlist, and at local wiki against the Mediawiki:Spam-blacklist at that wiki, both times success (if you call that success <urk>)

Already fixed with r107857. I have tagged the revision for merge to live site.
