Description Brion Vibber 2009-03-02 22:44:45 UTC
We've got a number of CNAMEs for download.wikimedia.org, such as download.wikipedia.org. Having multiple URLs to reach the same content may confuse search results and encourage people to use non-preferred URLs; it would be better if all the non-standard names redirected to the main one.
Comment 1 JeLuF 2010-04-16 20:48:34 UTC
Done.

$HTTP["host"] !~ "^dumps.wikimedia.org$" {
        url.redirect = ( "^/(.*)$" => "http://dumps.wikimedia.org/$1")
}
