Before we do double work, can someone figure out whether all projects (that we show at least) already use, or otherwise plan to start using HTTPS for their connections any time soon?

Main page index

All right, what I'd like to have is an index alike what it is now, with all FAQs in sub-indexes.
I'll look into the templates of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Main_page_templates to see if I can add images.
Also still want to remind everyone of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting
And https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Markup_spec#Can_be_used_anywhere

Single braces {}

The Wiki doesn't like the use of single braces { and } in thread titles, and probably also not in the main text. I tried to escape them using nowiki, but that didn't help.

Projects use of HTTPS

Before we do double work, can someone figure out whether all projects (that we show at least) already use, or otherwise plan to start using HTTPS for their connections any time soon? I see some use it on their web sites already, but that then doesn't automatically mean they use it for their Add URL as well. Jord (talk) 14:58, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
