Hi,
I work on project using API of portal based on Media Wiki.
Unfortunately they changed media wiki version from 1.16 to 1.30.
Earlier in endpoint list: logevents I got response with field move.
Unfortunately, we don't have 'move' field in response now. I don't know
what is it (one thing I know: move field had 2 fields: new_ns and
new_title).
I now also that now in response we can find 'params' field, which has also
2 fields: target_ns and target_title.
So I have a few questions:
1) What was 'move'
2) What is 'params' - is it the same thing as 'move'?
3) Can I get documentation for another version of Media Wiki than current?
Thanks,
Hi MediaWiki API mailing list!
I have a question about how the pageview metrics for Wikimedia commons
images accumulate– are they the total view count of that image anywhere, or
just when embedded in commons?
More detail:
I'm working with WikiLovesAfrica on a project to calculate how many times
each image has been viewed over a period of time, and I've been prototyping
data collection using the following endpoint (with the mwviews.api
<https://github.com/mediawiki-utilities/python-mwviews/> PageviewsClient):
https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/per-article/commons.wik…
*IMAGE_FILENAME*/monthly/2014010100/2019011800
My assumption is that since commons images are hosted from the commons, the
returned value will be the total view count of that image, wherever it is
being embedded, including all wikis. Is that correct?
If it's not the across-wiki count, is there a way to get that across-wiki
count?
All the best,

Hi all,
For my research (related to reverse engineering) I am interested in traffic
logs of an API.
It would help me a lot if I could get access to traffic logs of a
web-service. My question is, could I acquire such traffic logs of for
example Wikipedia.org? I'm interested in a collection of API requests, for
example a list of calls like this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=json&action=query&titles=Pigeon
This can simply be a list of urls, but can also be a server log or a
Wireshark capture.
I understand potential data-privacy issue, but a curated or filtered list
would already be very helpful.
Any pointers who to contact for such a request? Or other pointers for
gathering such data?
Thank you in advance.
Kind regards,
Willem

Hi Everyone,
Over the last few months, the Wikimedia Developer Advocacy team has been
working to improve technical documentation for the MediaWiki Action API
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page>.
So far, we have:
- Started efforts to revise, simplify, and reorganize the MediaWiki
Action API pages on MediaWiki using a new documentation template for
sub-pages: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Documentation_template
- Updated the API navigation-template:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Template:API
As we continue to make improvements to the technical documentation, we
could use your help to better guide our efforts!
Would you please take a few moments to complete the following survey and
share your opinions and experiences with us?

Hi, I try to write mechanism of fetching new data using your API. And I am
confused, because API response in recent changes endpoint includes
"rccontinue" like this: "20181222184231|119590". What is it? I mean this
"|" and second value.
