[Toolserver-l] Exposing data about deleted revisions

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I wanted to get an OK (or not) to return the page title, and timestamp for a given deleted revid. It might also be helpful to return the username. Some information on the tool is available at http://toolserver.org/~lifeguard/page/tools/get-deleted-data This is needed as a workaround for bug 23489 (No way to get the page title of a deleted revision by its rev_id: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23489). Specifically, the database of link additions maintained by COIBot has some data corrupted by mixing charsets which needs to be repaired. We need page titles for corrupted rows, and since we have only a revid, we cannot get it from MediaWiki at present. Thanks, - -Mike
