Description Liangent 2012-12-19 15:17:13 UTC 
It's not sending a valid SSL cert for that but I know it may be not easy to configure so. I propose to point them to another IP, then disable https on that IP.
Comment 1 Alex Monk 2012-12-19 17:16:28 UTC 
Disabling HTTPS is worse than simply giving an invalid certificate (Which is really perfectly secure, but untrusted because it's for the wrong domain), so I propose WONTFIXing this.
Comment 2 Chris Steipp 2012-12-19 19:51:20 UTC 
This is an ops decision, but I would also recommend a WONTFIX for this. If we point to another IP, where https is disabled, then they would get an error saying the server isn't available. The cost of issuing www. certificates for every language is also prohibitively high.
Comment 3 Platonides 2012-12-19 20:37:38 UTC 
Either adding www,en.wikipedia.org as alternative name (but we have www.*.wikipedia.org!), or wontfixing.
Comment 4 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2013-03-17 20:52:23 UTC 
I guess wont fix too.  People should really use the en.wikipedia.org entry :-]
