Description

Let's collect real traces from a phone before we do the change and after we did the change. I'm thinking of two different user scenarios:

direct access to a wikipedia article using the desktop domain, using a mobile phone
click on a wikipedia link on Google search result, using a mobile phone.

Lets do it on https://it.wikipedia.org (the change happen 8-11 September)

AC:

Collect a HAR and trace for the two use cases for it.wikipedia.org before the change and attach them to this task
Collect a HAR and trace for the two use cases for it.wikipedia.org after the change and attach them to this task

This works as it should.

Here's some screenshot from the waterfall where we automate going to Google, do a search and click on the result, going to Wikipedia. Before we did the change coming from Google the browser did these requests. You can see the redirect there:
