Dan,
I don't know the exact relationship between the MediaWiki work and the main Wikipedia servers.
Here's a concrete example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Contains: [img alt="The two Northrop YF-23s" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2b/Northrop_YF-23_DFRC.jpg/100px-Northrop_YF-23_DFRC.jpg" width="100" height="74" /]
Or: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_station Contains: [img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" width="50" height="39" /]
We are not adding any extra arguments to the GET.
Is this the wrong place to be noting this new problem? I assumed that Wikipedia was running the latest MediaWiki?
All we would need is a rollback for approx 8-10 days. We have hordes of iPad app users of the WikiNodes app complaining that they can not see the images in the app.

As Roan said, that's already been done. Maybe if you showed us a link to exactly where in the API you're seeing that, we'd be able to figure out what the problem is that you're still seeing?

Hi Roan,
Thanks for your reply. Sorry... I might be a day out of date here. All I know is that our app is now broken, and pages like the Wikipedia home page have:
[img alt="A sky filled with many types of cirrus clouds" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2e/CirrusField-color.jpg/100px-CirrusField-color.jpg" width="100" height="75" /]
Which breaks our parsing.
Can this be reverted to "http://" instead of "//" for ~10 days?

Regarding the change from "http://" to "//", this also broke our iOS app, WikiNodes. Our popular Wikipedia browser app is now nonfunctional.
We'd be grateful if you could roll back the change for approx 10 days. We can submit an update to the Apple App Store on Monday, which will then take 7 days to be approved. If you could postpone this change until 10-October, we can fix the code on our side.
Have you read the archives of this mailing list? Or the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list? We already did what you asked for.
