Description Thunderhead 2008-01-26 22:52:07 UTC 
Is it possible to add a link next to the current "Create account / sign in" notice, which says "secure login", and links to the secure Wikimedia domain for that language and project?
Comment 1 Raimond Spekking 2008-09-23 22:32:57 UTC 
You can create/modify [[MediaWiki:Loginend]] and add a link to the secure login.

Closing this bug as LATER when more (a lot more) servers are available for a more prominent/generic link to the secure login.
Comment 2 Chad H. 2011-11-29 20:15:34 UTC 
Reopening since we now serve https from the main domains.
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2011-11-29 20:38:20 UTC 
Note that what we *don't* have is a standard link (or better yet, forced redirect) to SSL when logging in.

Some of our wikis have added custom SSL links on the login page, but not all of them -- eg https://fr.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Sp%C3%A9cial:Connexion&returnto=Accueil shows no SSL link at present.
Comment 4 Nemo 2012-03-15 09:14:16 UTC 
The link is mostly useless now, given that you only need to add an s to the URL.

Yep. Marking as duplicate of that request.
