Welcome to the club; that confused me for several weeks after we moved
to MediaWiki. :)  (We found the behavior after I reported it as a bug,
too.)

One interesting thing is that the HTTP is aggressively cached, while
HTTPS is not. This is one reason we give out only HTTP URLs in
announcements, etc., so it doesn't slam the app servers.

If you ever update a wiki page with a crucial item that needs updating
in the cache immediately, you can ask on #fedora-admin for that.  It's
only come up one time for me that I recall, but it was sure worth
knowing that. :)
