Update API query continuation usage in MobileFrontend for future change of default
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

In the not too distant future, the default for continuation for API action=query will be changing from the current "raw" format to a more user-friendly format, see here for the most recent announcement of this planned change.

This extension appears to be using query-continue, and so will probably be affected by this change. If you wish to continue using the "raw" format, specify the 'rawcontinue' parameter in your API queries. To be ready for the new format (documented here), specify the 'continue' parameter with the empty string as a value in the initial query.

I note that Gerrit change 210383 seems to have fixed one instance, but I still see query-continue usage in resources/mobile.watchlist/WatchListApi.js and some qunit tests.

Yup. Not sure why this is in Ready for Signoff yet. I shouldn't have put it in Code Review before submitting the patch for the WatchListApi class.
