Event Timeline

Not fixed completely because there's a similar error message that appears when you click the "thank" button for bots. Although maybe this is a seperate issue?

The problem here is that the API that's available to us (prop=revisions) doesn't seem to have a way of telling us whether a certain revision is a bot edit. (in contrast with desktop/mobile web, which don't need to use the API)

I made T317165 and T317166 to capture this challenge and tagged the Content Transform Team. @Clovermoss whenever the Content Transform team can prioritize making the change to the API for us we will update things on our side.
