    I'm having trouble inserting the following link to a Wikipedia article into a post. I am using the Link icon in the editing window:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_(unit)

    The error I get is:

    In Firefox and Chrome, this link takes me directly to the correct webpage. It sorta works in MS Edge - which takes me to a search results page.

    As a workaround, let's see if a bit.ly link to the same article will work. Yes, using a bit/ly link does seem to work.
