When list=allusers is used with auactiveusers, a property 'recenteditcount'
is returned in the result. In bug 67301[1] it was pointed out that this
property is including various other logged actions, and so should really be
named something like "recentactions".
Gerrit change 130093,[2] merged today, adds the "recentactions" result
property. "recenteditcount" is also returned for backwards compatability,
but will be removed at some point during the MediaWiki 1.25 development
cycle.
Any clients using this property should be updated to use the new property
name. The new property will be available on WMF wikis with 1.24wmf12, see
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki_1.24/Roadmap for the schedule.

Previously, if none of the values supplied for the pltitles, tltemplates,
clcategories, or imimages parameters to prop=links, prop=templates,
prop=categories, or prop=images were valid titles, the parameter would be
ignored and all links, templates, categories, or images would be returned.
With the merge of Gerrit change 347879,[1] this situation will result in no
links, templates, categories, or images being returned, as none match the
invalid titles supplied.
Note that submitting an empty value for one of these parameters will
continue to ignore the parameter and return all links, templates,
categories, or images, since this seems to be relatively common practice.
