  The Wikimedia Foundation server’s “localhost”, i.e. the computer the wiki software is running from. That does make sense.

    Well. What I find odd about it is that if there is reference to localhost then a production page is reaching out to clients computers to parse some math formula. I think the developer hardcoded something that worked for him and pushed to prod. It could possibly still work for him but not for others without a program listening on that port.
