Result: "Error generating thumbnail Error creating thumbnail: Image was not scaled, is the requested width bigger than the source?" Expected result: 15px thumbnail of the 16×16 image. That image worked before, but the thumb itself had probably been created a long time ago.
Merging of bug 16451 fixes to deployment should help fix this up...
Bump per http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Café/Portal/Archivo/Técnica/Actual#Iconito_del_PDF
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16451 says the solution for Wikimedia sites is to remove the following 2 lines from CommonSettings.php // Disable server-side GIF scaling $wgMediaHandlers['image/gif'] = 'BitmapHandler_ClientOnly'; CommonSettings.php is linked from here: http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf See: http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=CommonSettings.php See also the long discussion thread about animated GIF resizing linked in the table of contents here in the Common Graphics village pump: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Graphics_village_pump#toc The Commons thread says that system administrators can edit CommonSettings.php to remove the 2 lines. See: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/System_administrators#List Can someone please contact some system administrators? I don't use IRC. Andrew Garrett provided the fix for the animated GIF scaling problem according to https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16451 Can he remove the 2 lines from CommonSettings.php? He is listed as a system administrator on the Wikimedia list. Can any system administrator remove the 2 lines from CommonSettings.php? Please do so.
Wikia GIF scaling is working. Does this mean it will also work on Wikimedia sites? I searched Wikia.com for animated GIFs: *http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Awikia.com+animated+gif Here are some results of that search: *http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Animated_Gifs *http://tinierme.wikia.com/wiki/Action_items Compare the thumbnail and full-size versions of the images. GIF scaling is working. For example: *http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/File:1217685012_Reallyhighskyjack.gif - 1.55 megabytes. *[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/halo/images/thumb/b/b5/1217685012_Reallyhighskyjack.gif/120px-1217685012_Reallyhighskyjack.gif thumbnail of same image] at 175 kilobytes.

Enabled on all wikis now. Repurposing bug back to original report per Tim.
