As discussed over at T170893#3541842, this page contains (on enwiki) several mainspace links with useful page previews, see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:CiteThisPage&page=Dire_wolf&id=791135679 ; it looks like it fell through the cracks as the initial draft blacklist was refined. It's an example of the inconsistent user experience we should avoid causing with the blacklist (one and the same article link will generate popups on some pages but not on others, without any user-discernable reason).

[operations/mediawiki-config@master] Remove CiteThisPage from blacklist for page previews
Code looks ok, moving to "Needs more work" as this task requires SWAT deploy. @Jdlrobson - are you going to SWAT it or do you want me to do it?
