Just wanted to thank you for implementing my suggestion. :)

Yes. Change to English in the English Wikipedia. I don't know if people operate AWB in other language versions of Wikipedia. If they do, then obviously this fix should change to the language of the Wikipedia that being is operated in.

Just to let you guys no, I opened an RfC on this issue.

@Billinghurst: The WP:VPP closing statement says there was a "clear consensus." How much more does it need for you to recognize?

@Billinghurst As for the "consensus", no one was referring to the ongoing discussion on WP:VPT. I was instead pointing at the year-old discussion at WP:VPP.

@Billinghurst What makes you think this kind of fix would interfere with an "personal [language] preference"? Language is not affected at all by changing the link protocol from HTTP to HTTPS.
