Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to know how many pages are inside a
namespace, for example how many pages are "Categories", or how many pages
are "Articles"?
Thanks,
Chux

Hi guys,
I am trying to retrieve the templates associated to a page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=templates&format=json&t…
So in this scenario, I am able to get a list, but I noticed some of the
listed templates here are marked as protected. I am not able to see any
attribute in the results that shows this flag.
Any ideas on how can I filter those out?
Thanks,
Chux
If your bot checks meta=userinfo&uiprop=hasmsg to determine if a talk
page message has been posted in order to stop running, it is currently
broken since Echo disables that along with the orange bar.

Hi, Aayush. I'm cc'ing the mediawiki-api mailing list.
Some questions:
* Do you plan on working in a branch for a few weeks or months and then
merging it into master on September 10th? It seems to me that it would
be better to write improvements one by one and have a lot of smaller merges.
* What kind of documentation will you be writing? A walkthrough of the
code so future developers can understand it? Some kind of user-facing
manual? Other things?
* Have you already reviewed
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API/REST_proposal , read the last few
months of the mediawiki-api mailing list
https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api , and looked
at the recent changes to the API code
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/message:api+status:merged,n,z to see
what the current trends are?
* Can you tell us how long it has taken you to do similar projects in
the past?
* Who are your mentors?
