On the HTTPS version of Stack Exchange, all links are HTTPS, except some links on the topbar. I am mainly concerned about links in the inbox.
In preparation for the eventual deployment of full HTTPS support on Stack Exchange, and also to make the currently available "alpha" HTTPS support more usable, all links from Stack Exchange sites to other Stack Exchange sites should be .  Currently, at least the following places still feature links with explicit http: protocol prefixes:   the page footer, the "Hot Network Questions" and "Community Bulletin" modules in the sidebar,  (the site switcher menu is OK, though),   and, of course,   lots and lots of user-supplied links in post and comment content.   I've posted this feature request with the intent to provide a single central place for tracking these issues, rather than having them scattered across multiple meta threads.  If you find more places on SE where protocol-relative links should be used, please report them below.  I fully expect this request, in its full sense, to be treated as  for the time being; however, these issues do need to be fixed at some point before our HTTPS support is ready for "prime time".  Ps. Yes, the next release of  (v1.10) is going to include a general client-side fix for most of these issues.  In the mean time, the  plugin effectively provides the same functionality, and much more besides.

"This edit would have to be a suggested edit" / edit button grayed out A couple of times recently when I attempted to edit a post while reviewing it from the "First Posts" queue, I received the following message when I tried to submit the form:  This edit would have to be a suggested edit. (x)   This is a rather cryptic message, considering that edits made from a review are suggested edits, subject to the same peer review process. There was no indication of how the edit would have to be submitted differently, much less why. I searched both help and meta for more information about this message, but came up empty.  The first time it happened, after I cancelled out I saw that someone else had just edited the post, so I thought maybe that's why I couldn't submit an edit from the review (and wondered why, if that's the case, the error message didn't just say that instead of telling me something that doesn't make any sense - that the edit I'm trying to suggest can't be submitted because it would have to be a suggested edit). However, the second time I received this message (last night, for this question: ), there was no other edit. So, I clicked the No action needed button and tried to edit the post outside the review process, only to discover that the edit link was grayed out.   I see several explanations of possible causes for graying out the edit link here: . However, there was no tooltip when I hovered over the disabled link, and the edit queue was in the single digits.  A few minutes later, I noticed that the edit link was no longer grayed out, so I edited the post and my edit was accepted.   My best hypothesis based on my experience with the error so far and the explanations I've read here at meta is that someone submitted a suggested edit while I was reviewing the post, which (a) caused me to get the cryptic error message and (b) caused the edit link to be grayed out when I accessed the post the normal way. Then a few minutes later, the suggested edit was rejected, opening up the question for new edit suggestions.  Rather than speculating about it and trying to determine the answer scientifically, it would be helpful if someone could give me the answer (as Seinfeld fans might put it, "Why don't you just tell me why I can't edit the post?"). It would be even more helpful if the error message itself provided the explanation, or if the message were defined somewhere in the help pages. But, at the very least, hopefully there will soon be an answer on meta to enlighten people who scratch their chins over this in the future. :) Which Answer to Accept: Better Solution or Answer to Actual Question?

Background  The standard definition of species refers to the concept of . If two lineages are found to be reproductively isolated, then we consider these two lineages to belong to different species. My question concerns evolved reproductive isolation in Drosophila sp. following labs due to experimental evolution.  Question  Have we ever demonstrated that two Drosophila sp. lineages that could initially interbreed (in nature or in labs) evolved through artificial selection (and drift and mutations) in labs to finally not be able to interbreed anymore either due pre- or post- zygotic isolation (see )? Or, in other words, have we ever demonstrated that two drosophila lineages evolved to become different species (reproductive isolation definition) in labs experiments?  If not, have we ever observed some partial reproductive isolation such as inbreeding depression for example?

Is a company e.g. Pfizer, singular or plural?

Solvable Lie algebra with codimension 1 ideal There is an exercise in Humphreys's An Introduction to Lie Algebras and Representation Theory: "Any nilpotent Lie algebra contains a codimension 1 ideal".  The proof I am thinking of is the following.  Suppose the Lie algebra $L$ satisfies $L\neq[L,L]$. Then $\pi\colon L\to L/[L,L]$ is a projection onto an abelian algebra. Choose a codimension 1 subspace $I\subset L/[L,L]$. Then $I$ is an ideal and its preimage $\pi^{-1}(I)$ is necessarily an ideal in $L$, because any subspace containing the derived algebra is an ideal. Moreover, $\pi^{-1}(I)$ has codimension 1. $\square$  The only condition on $L$ is that $L\neq[L,L]$, which holds for solvable Lie algebras as well. Is this proof correct? How come Humphreys didn't set the exercise with "nilpotent" replaced by "solvable"?
