Dbrant added a comment to T352801: [spike] Can the page/related endpoint be replaced by a single MW API call?.

Not sure if there's a way to get the list of descriptions in different variants, similar to the varianttitles? or do we need to make another API call for that?

We're returning a fairly verbose response right now because it was useful for debugging etc. It shouldn't really affect latency and it'll max out at like 30KB probably but it's more info than is needed by default. @Seddon perhaps you could advise us on what the Android app actually wants and then we only include the rest if a debug parameter is explicitly passed?

It seems the issue is that the user expected to see their User page, but since this user page doesn't exist, the app just shows an error and doesn't provide an option to create the page. This would then fall under T131284.

Dbrant added a comment to T336693: Re-implement reading lists REST interface outside RESTbase.

I can confirm that apps no longer require hydration of the summary piece in the reading lists responses. The iOS app never used it at all, and the Android app used it as an optimization (because it was there) to display the description and thumbnail of reading list items slightly sooner, before they get populated by our background service that saves the items for offline use. (We have a task T346739 for completely removing it from our code, and there shouldn't be any difficulty, since it's already working without it.)

You're both right - The order of the items in this context menu is partially under the system's control, and partially under our control, such that it may be possible for us to rearrange them.
I do agree that we should reevaluate the order of the items based on most likely user intentions, preferably supported by data with a citation ;)
