Per the deprecation policy,[1] this needs to be announced to wikitech-l.

In Gerrit change 383918,[2] it was realized that ContribsPager::getUserCond() had grown weirdly large and provided a poor interface for what it was doing, and changes in that patch were going to exacerbate the situation. Since there are no users of that method in core or extensions in Gerrit, it was decided that the best course of action would be to merge it into its one caller rather than piling more tech debt on top of the existing tech debt there.
