Special:EditWatchlist message should never use 'last modified'
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Visit https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:EditWatchlist
refresh
notice the text changes from 'last modified' to 'last edited'
This is a bit jarring.
Expected:

  • Change text 'modified' to 'edited'
  • Avoid flash of unstyled content by hiding the original text until the change has occurred.

@KHammerstein I need to chat to you today about this card. Can you ping me when you have a moment?

@KHammerstein says it should be "last edited" in all places.
