--- Comment #7 from Jakub Jelen <jjelen@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Thank you for the patch. It looks nice, but I believe loading images directly
from wikipedia is exactly the case the authors are trying to avoid, as
described in the POTD page [1].

Problem is that the method of downloading the image once and uploading it to
imgur is probably not as reliable as expected and this can not be solved by the
end-user application.

As another possibility, would be to run another mirror with independent way of
downloading and re-uploading pictures, but it would require also having the
backend part opensource and run it in some other service (I can put it on mine
VPS or somewhere else). I will propose this to the authors, but I am not sure
when I will get a time to do that. It will depend on the complexity of the task
itself.

Anyway POTD is now working fine.
