The "featured" (article of the day) restbase endpoint started timing out:
/en.wikipedia.org/v1/feed/featured/{yyyy}/{mm}/{dd} (Retrieve aggregated feed content for April 29, 2016) timed out
This happened shortly after the deployment of https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/612396 which set wgForceHTTPS to true by default.
The local Icinga NRPE command is:
/usr/local/bin/check-restbase
For example on restbase2017:
/usr/local/bin/check-restbase
WARNING:urllib3.connectionpool:Retrying (Retry(total=2, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None)) after connection broken by 'ReadTimeoutError("HTTPConnectionPool(host='10.192.48.119', port=7231): Read timed out. (read timeout=5)",)': /en.wikipedia.org/v1/feed/featured/2016/04/29

On https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/#/Feed/aggregatedFeed when selecting the "aggregated daily featured content", clicking "try it out", filling in some values and submitting.. it times out.
But other things work, like:

< Krinkle> and https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/feed/onthisday/events/04/11 also works fine
< Krinkle> and regular restbase/page html also fine: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/html/Foobar
