             Bug #: 39366
           Summary: Use of edit token in ApiModifyItem
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: WikidataRepo

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


To make the API somewhat simpler, and possibly easier to maintain, the
itemtoken should be removed in favor of the edittoken. The only real problem is
that we can't change it to enforce serialization of some of the requests, but
those calls could be handled separately.

Use of "gettoken" will be removed from wbgetitems and wbset*. All modules that
use "token" will then supply edittoken and not itemtoken. The user interface is
currently using edittoken and can continue to use that one. For API calls the
edittoken is already available through action=tokens, and no changes are
necessary there.
