When api.php was basically the only API in MediaWiki, calling it "the API"
worked well. But now we've got a Parsoid API, Gabriel's work on a REST
content API, Gabriel's work on an internal storage API, and more on the
way. So just saying "the API" is getting confusing.
So let's bikeshed a reasonably short name for it that isn't something awful
like "the api.php API". I'm horrible at naming.

Hi guys,
So I make an edit logged out and get the following back from Wikipedia:
{"edit":{"captcha":{"type":"image","mime":"image/png","id":"2050100762","url":"/w/index.php?title=Special:Captcha/image&wpCaptchaId=2050100762"},"result":"Failure"}}
So I use the url to try and download the image, but get nothing. Visiting the link in my browser gives
Internal Error
Requested bogus captcha image
Any idea what’s occurring?
Best regards,
Richard Cook
