Seriously, unless you are intentionally trying to scare people away from the site, then this should be fixed.
wikitech is mainly intended for Wikimedia tech staff, not the general public, so I assume that they don't care very much if the general public is scared away. Anyone who can use the site usefully presumably knows enough about HTTPS to understand that they can safely ignore the warning.
Pretty much, yeah. :) We put "real" certs on public-facing sites, but just haven't bothered with what is essentially our tech department intranet. (But since we're crazy people it's open if you want to look at it!)
