https://en.m.wikipedia.org/ "Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at en.m.wikipedia.org." *.m.wikipedia.org has its own font-end proxy (mobile-lb) which doesn't appear to handle port 443 for HTTPS. Note that SSL certs for *.wikipedia.org won't apply to something.m.wikipedia.org as they only apply for that single level of wildcarding. Nice.
As noted in Bug 29896 *.m.wikipedia.org should be going away soon.
(In reply to comment #1) > As noted in Bug 29896 *.m.wikipedia.org should be going away soon. Can you provide more details on that? Note that there are iPhone/iPad apps that explicitly link to the m. domain to force 'mobile' rendering, which presumably might be affected by some sort of elimination of the domain.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/ works meanwhile. Setting status to "resolved".
