This will happen in a week's time. We are, however, still observing quite a
volume of requests for mobile sections endpoints using the
rest.wikimedia.org domain. Specifically, almost all of the requests are
asking for resources pertaining to the de.wikipedia.org domain.
Unfortunately no user-agent header is provided so we are not able to
pin-point the client. Please ensure your clients point to
https://{domain}/api/rest_v1/
instead of https://rest.wikimedia.org/{domain}/v1/.

Cheers,
Marko

Will it apply to the pageviews API as well?

It will, but the canonical URL for this has always been
https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/?doc, which will continue to work.
Are you aware of any pageview users hitting rest.wikimedia.org?

In any case, we'll check the logs for remaining rest.wikimedia.org
accesses & make an effort to remind remaining users before
decommissioning it.

Ohh gotcha. Okay, that works; we should be good.
