Why is the gif at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Obesity_state_level_estimates_1985-2010.gif not animating?
Because it's a thumbnail, which is taking rendering of the first screen, not resizing the original image
The problem was due to the image being too large. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgMaxAnimatedGifArea
(In reply to comment #2) > The problem was due to the image being too large. > > https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgMaxAnimatedGifArea Changing resolution from fixed -> invalid (That's still not quite right resolution for this bug). Fixed implies somebody changed MediaWiki to allow scaling of the original image. See also bug 28135 for stuff related to scaling big images
