Closed, DuplicatePublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

What happens?:
The image the API pulls from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:POTD_protected is from an older POTD. As of filing this bug, I get a result of 'File:Hyles gallii - Keila1.jpg'

What should have happened instead?:
It should return the name of the current POTD, e.g. today Platycypha Caligata

Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.): browser: Windows Firefox 120.0.1 (64-bit)
