It's a good idea. Designers what do you think?

Yeah something like this where we summarize the edits to page would be useful

@Nirzar it would make sense to do this at the same time as T147722
Could you update the mock to show what it would look like for other namespaces and merge T147722 into this one?

Absolutely

Ping @kaldari can we use https://xtools.wmflabs.org to provide this information and more? Would that scale? I wonder if we could be more ambitious with this summary.

@Jdlrobson: XTools has a page API you could use to get this information: https://xtools.readthedocs.io/en/stable/api/page.html. For example: https://xtools.wmflabs.org/api/page/articleinfo/en.wikipedia.org/Albert_Einstein. Whether or not it would scale is another issue. @MusikAnimal knows more about the caching and scaling aspects of XTools.

My guess is that it would make more sense to just steal the code that XTools uses (https://github.com/x-tools/xtools) to get this info and copy it into MobileFrontend so that you can query against the production databases rather than the Labs replicas.

The XTools API can handle a decent amount of traffic, but I don't know about using it in MobileFrontend. Getting the data you're after could be done with a single query, something like:

SELECT
  COUNT(*) AS num_edits,
  COUNT(DISTINCT(rev_user_text)) AS num_editors,
  MAX(rev_timestamp) AS modified_at
FROM revision
WHERE rev_page = 1092923

This is how we do it using the replicas. On production it seems this goes really slow... I don't know why, but I'm sure you could use something similar.
