Subject: Call limit

 

Hi –

 

We have implemented the WikiHow data to our search results on our LeapFish Product (www.leapfish.com) via the MediaWiki API and unfortunately we seem to have hit the maximum call limit and/or our IP has been confused with SPAM.  I’m not sure what the call limit is or where I can go to request an increase but is there anyway we can remove the limit or whitelist our IP?  LeapFish is a fairly high traffic site.   Please advise.  Thank you for the help.

 

Below is a current call example:

http://www.wikihow.com/api.php?action=query&list=search&srsearch=%22+ride+a+bike%22&sroffset=0&format=xml&srlimit=4

 

Would it help if we passed user information?  If so how we would we pass it?

My login is behzadb

The request is coming from the following IP:

208.48.87.2

Regards,
