We've merged up https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/214705/1 to address this, and I've purged the caches to ensure the update is fully live already. It should address the issue, assuming that the block on RL's /w/load.php entry point was the only part of the problem.

It's all in the report. We block w/ in robots.txt always have.
There have been a bunch of changes to improve performance of the site overall which might have led to that. Mailing this to the public mailing list wikitech would give you a better idea.
Our site /is/ mobile friendly it's just we tell google not to load
styles
from w/load.php so no need to panic.
The question is what is the penalty of us failing this tool? Does it impact our google search rankings?
Fix is trivial.. Update robots.txt but first the question is why are we blocking scripts and styles on that url?

Hi Readership team and broader community, Any changes we might have recently made to cause this warning to appear about googlebot not being able to access our site? I consider this to be a very serious issue. The examples below are not mobile, but same issue applies when you try
an
en.m. version of the pages.
Best, Jon

Jon,
Google notified us of the followin...
"We recently noticed that there was a change with how you embed CSS &
JS
which results in us not being able to use the CSS & JS to recognize
what the
page looks like. That's making some of your pages fail the mobile-friendly-test, for example. You used to load CSS & JS from bits.wikimedia.org, but now they're loaded through /w/load.php?...
directly
from the Wikipedia host, where that path is blocked by robots.txt.
You can see how we render the pages with Fetch as Google in Webmaster Tools / Search Console, you can also see most of that with the
test-page at:
https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fen...
Some of the pages still pass the test there (example), but the CSS is broken there too since it's blocked. "
Any ideas what can be causing this?
Regards, Wes
