Protected edit request on 11 March 2014: Use protocol relative URL
Since tools.wmflabs.org/ftl/cgi-bin/ftl website supports HTTPS, I suggest switching the link to protocol-relative URL. Here is the change. Thanks! Chmarkine (talk) 22:02, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Pictogram voting question.svg Question:, ; wouldn't it be more appropriate to just make it an internal link to ftl/cgi-bin/ftl? — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (t • e • c) 23:57, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't see why not. Jackmcbarn (talk) 00:02, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Indeed. It is better to use internal link. Thanks for the idea! Chmarkine (talk) 01:42, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * One thing to notice is that if toollabs:A is used, then A is encoded automatically, so ? becomes %3F, and & becomes %26. Therefore, to my knowledge, it's impossible to pass parameters to that website. So I would suggest keep the current format. Chmarkine (talk) 04:57, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
