Hi Robert, thanks! :) Ok, the source code created by this render feature is not that enormous as the normal source code ;) So this really seems to be the only chance to get the stuff i want - hm, i hoped there´ll be a solution which exports me everything in XML-format. Looks like i´ve got to parse it by myself.
Thanks to everbody for helping me :)

Hi Sorry, should have been more specific. It isn't an API function, it is done with the usual index.php.
You want to do something like:
http://en.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=UK_government_plans_to_replace_Hous...
which gives simpler HTML than the page generated for browsers. If you look at the source HTML returned you'll see how much easier it is to deal with than the entire GUI page ;-)

But render isn´t an action parameter as i see in the api documentation. What did you mean exactly with action=render?
Thanks to everybody for the kindly help. Sascha
