Final reminder on this: We are planning to finally
sunset
rest.wikimedia.org in the week starting April 25th, 1 1/2 weeks from
now. Please move your REST API clients to /api/rest_v1/ at the regular
project domains instead!
This will happen in a week's time. We are, however, still observing quite a
volume of requests for mobile sections endpoints using the
rest.wikimedia.org domain. Specifically, almost all of the requests are
asking for resources pertaining to the
de.wikipedia.org domain.
Unfortunately no user-agent header is provided so we are not able to
pin-point the client. Please ensure your clients point to
https://{domain}/api/rest_v1/
instead of
https://rest.wikimedia.org/{domain}/v1/.
Cheers,
Marko
Thanks,
Gabriel

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
