ApiQueryWatchlist, ApiFeedRecentChanges, and ApiFeedWatchlist also have anon/!anon or hideanons options.

Thanks @Nardog.

Looks like ApiQueryWatchlist and ApiFeedRecentChanges should have been fixed in T341228: Update action API to handle temporary users.

We should look into ApiFeedWatchlist - seems to have also been missed.

Change #1056514 had a related patch set uploaded (by STran; author: STran):

[mediawiki/core@master] [WIP] Filter temporary accounts as anonymous in ApiQueryRecentChanges

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1056514

Does this task also cover ApiFeedWatchlist? anon/!anon seem to be already working correctly.

ApiFeedWatchlist seems to be working, but ApiFeedRecentChanges does not:

• https://test.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=feedrecentchanges&hideliu=1

Based on my reading of the code, it seems that feedrecentchanges has been fixed through T370695.

Thanks for looking into the APIs @Nardog.

This seems to contain no temp accounts...

• https://test.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=feedrecentchanges&hideliu=1

...whereas this contains temp accounts. I believe that's correct, or am I missing something?

The former contained temp accounts as I recall, though it currently does not.

The latter is completely empty when I'm logged in:

When I'm logged off, it does contain temp accounts. The only checked item in "Recent changes" -> "Changed shown" in Preferences is "Hide categorization of pages", which I believe is the default. But I don't think feeds should give you different results depending on whether you're logged in, nor are they supposed to, right? Wonder if it's a CDN issue or something, though FWIW the header says codfw.

Per the Ticket Description I have verified the new code has been implemented and is working as expected for APIQueryRecentChanges.

I see no difference between the response from those links whether I'm logged in or logged out.

These are my relevant preferences:

Fixed on my end too, must have been a temporary issue.
