Wrong Place?
[רעדאַקטירן קוואַלטעקסט]I prefer that messages be posted to [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Guy_Macon ] instead of here, but if you post here I will get a weekly email notice and will eventually get back here to respond. This may take a week or two so please be patient.

LTR / RTL bug
[רעדאַקטירן קוואַלטעקסט]yi.wikipedia.org (Yiddish) has a problem with LTR text. It puts the icon on the wrong end of https links but gets http links right. he.wikipedia.org (Hebrew) has no such problem.
Here are the results of my testing with various browsers:
- Using Firefox, on yi, http has the icon on the right, not overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using Firefox, on yi, https has the icon on the left, overlapping the leftmost letter.
- Using Firefox, on he, http has the icon on the right, not overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using Firefox, on he. https has the icon on the right, not overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using Opera, on yi, http has the icon on the left, not overlapping the leftmost letter.
- Using Opera, on yi, https has the icon on the right, overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using Opera, on he, http has no icon.
- Using Opera, on he, https has no icon.
- Using Chrome, on yi, http has the icon on the left, not overlapping the leftmost letter.
- Using Chrome, on yi, https has the icon on the right, overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using Chrome, on he, http has no icon.
- Using Chrome, on he, https has no icon.
- Using IE, on yi, http has the icon on the left, not overlapping the leftmost letter.
- Using IE, on yi, https has the icon on the right, overlapping the rightmost letter.
- Using IE, on he, http has no icon.
- Using IE, on he, https has no icon.
Also, IE throws a javascript error on yi.wikipedia.org but not he.wikipedia.org. I don't know if this is related.
Versions tested:
- Firefox 36.0
- Opera 22.0.1471.50
- Chrome 40.0.2214.115 m
- IE 8.0.6001.18702
Conclusion:
If a Wiki always has the icon on the left, that's OK.
If a Wiki always has the icon on the right, that's OK.
If a Wiki always has no icon, that's OK.
If a Wiki has the icon overlapping the leftmost or rightmost letter, that's a bug.
If a Wiki doesn't show the same icon location on http and https, that's a bug.
So he.wikipedia.org needs no fixes, but yi.wikipedia.org is buggy.
