"Original Size" download option is not actually the true original size

[desrosj]

In the download button dropdown with the available sizes for a given image in the w.org Photo Directory, the final option says "Original Size".

However, after clicking that option, you are sent to an image with an -scaled suffix on the name. Removing that brings results in the true original image loading, which is actually quite a bit larger.

Using ​this photo as an example, the "Original Size" is listed as 3200x2133. But after removing -scaled the image is 6000x4000

This bug was fixed in ticket #7888. However, while it remained unresolved, some images were uploaded to the directory.

For those images, the original file is still stored (which is why removing "-scaled" from the URL works), but the link to the original size in the database actually points to the scaled version.

The remaining fix is to run a database replacement to remove "-scaled", so the links point to the true original images.
