I don't know how much effort each of these two measures would be. If you'd ask me, I would suggest to be "very serious", but we are not under a deadline (the situation has been like this for more than a year now), and setting the rel="caonical" would already be really, really helpful.
This is done now. It would be good if Google could crawl uz.wikipedia.org to update the canonical URLs.
In case anyone is wondering, I don't think this would be a good thing to do on zh.wikipedia.org. The Chinese government would happily block *.wikipedia.org port 443 if it became popular. At least the current situation provides a way to work around keyword filtering for people who are sufficiently motivated -- if HTTPS was blocked, it would be much less useful.
