When list=allusers is used with auactiveusers, a property 'recenteditcount'
is returned in the result. In bug 67301[1] it was pointed out that this
property is including various other logged actions, and so should really be
named something like "recentactions".
Gerrit change 130093,[2] merged today, adds the "recentactions" result
property. "recenteditcount" is also returned for backwards compatability,
but will be removed at some point during the MediaWiki 1.25 development
cycle.
Any clients using this property should be updated to use the new property
name. The new property will be available on WMF wikis with 1.24wmf12, see
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.24/Roadmap for the schedule.

We have decided to officially retire the rest.wikimedia.org domain in
favor of /api/rest_v1/ at each individual project domain. For example,
https://rest.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/v1/?doc
becomes
https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc
Most clients already use the new path, and benefit from better
performance from geo-distributed caching, no additional DNS lookups,
and sharing of TLS / HTTP2 connections.
We intend to shut down the rest.wikimedia.org entry point around
March, so please adjust your clients to use /api/rest_v1/ soon.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Gabriel

Hi,
this is to let you know that we will start redirecting GET requests
with non-canonical titles to their canonical equivalent next week.
This is done to improve caching, and to ensure reliable purging of
cached responses.
The vast majority of clients handle redirects transparently, so at
most this will lead to a small slow-down from the redirect. To avoid
being redirected, make sure to use underscores instead of spaces, as
in "Main_Page".
Thanks,
Gabriel Wicke

Hi! I'm trying to create a simple dictionary function for a Web App. Basically, I want to be able to click on a word in my app, and it pops up the definition. I can't seem to find a simple way of doing this. Please help!
