Change Details

Our api supports a `noimages` parameter which was built for WMF but no longer being used inside WMF. It's hard to justify keeping this around in the state the code is so we should look to remove it. = Original bug report The core ApiParse supports `disablepp`, `disableeditsection` and `disabletoc`, but MobileFrontend adds `noimages`. We should deprecate the noimages parameter – since we're extending a core API – in favour of the new and improved disableimages parameter. = Developer notes Per https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99009#4746807 no WMF clients are using the `noimages` parameter. There might be users outside WMF but unmaintained code should be avoided. Let's remove it altogether.
