Thank you.
I found the git for the code. Could you maybe tell me a bit more exactly where the sentence algorithm is (or is not but should be). I might take a look at it some day next week. The name of the relevant function and filename or something like that for pointers.

Sentence handling algorithm appears to suck at HTML handling. I've filed a bug for it: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71671 As a workaround, try plaintext extracts: https://et.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=extracts%7Ccategories&exsentences=1&explaintext&redirects=&format=jsonfm&cllimit=10&exlimit=1&indexpageids=&maxlag=10&titles=j%C3%A4rv or switch from requesting a number of sentences to a number of characters.

Hi!

When I query the Estonian Wikipedia's Web API for the article's first sentence, I sometimes get empty response. Actually it gives back an horizontal rule and thats it.

For example:
https://et.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=extracts|categories&exsentences=1&redirects=&format=jsonfm&cllimit=10&exlimit=1&indexpageids=&maxlag=10&titles=järv

gives only an horizontal rule as the extract:
"extract": "<hr />",

Can anyone say what is happening here. Is the article's source organized in a wrong way or is it a problem on the APIs sentence parser side?

Best regards
