Mobile editor doesn't display the captcha if a given wiki requires it to accept the edit. A good example is eswiki. If you are an editor with less than 50 edits and include an external link or an e-mail address in your edit, the edit will fail in the mobile editor. Unfortunately, as it is now, the editor will show a success message and close, but will not save anything, making the user lose their changes.
Created attachment 12964 [details] Request that triggered captcha Adding a link to external website or e-mail address seems to trigger it, but not always.
Created attachment 12965 [details] Response from the captcha Contains a URL to the image, so it should be possible to show the captcha.

Definitely not fixed. Captcha is still not supported.

Max deployed today and I tested. Looks good
Max added additional error messaging but the issue still exists so reopening.
Note I use recaptcha on my wiki and this is the result: yeyyy incompatible captcha api responses! {"edit":{"captcha":{"type":"recaptcha","mime":"image/png","key":"6Lc0HuYSAAAAAJ2UgBO-2daReWc9Xhztq166yxG7","error":null},"result":"Failure"}}
FYI pasted the source code of https://es.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Caf%C3%A9/Archivo/T%C3%A9cnica/Actual&oldid=68583002 to generate the above capture.
Let's implement only FancyCaptcha for now. As far as I know, that's the only captcha used in WMF projects.
