(shell)$ dig lists.wikimedia.org [lists.wikimedia.org] AAAA
I don't understand this syntax. What is the second "lists.wikimedia.org" on that line?

The "[lists.wikimedia.org]" string does not belong. It was generated somehow, perhaps by the browser. It seems that some softwares make an attempt to recognize an URL and repeat it in square brackets. I see this sometimes in e-mails. Sorry for the confusion.

wikitech: make it a CNAME for silver
silver has an IPv6 address on eth0 now and also the AAAA record in DNS.
that would have resolved it if wikitech was a CNAME for silver as originally expected, but it uses an A record instead, therefore the extra patch above
Let us test this from an IPv6 only network:
(shell) ping6 -c 1 wikitech.wikimedia.org
PING wikitech.wikimedia.org(silver.wikimedia.org) 56 data bytes
64 bytes from silver.wikimedia.org: icmp_seq=1 ttl=59 time=73.7 ms
...
(shell) iceweasel https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/
...
Well done. Thank you very much.
alex@alex-laptop:~$ ssh alex-vps ping6 wikitech.wikimedia.org PING wikitech.wikimedia.org(silver.wikimedia.org) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from silver.wikimedia.org: icmp_seq=1 ttl=55 time=6.98 ms
Looks good.
