Hello! Sorry for my bad English.
Through the implementation of the current API impossible to get a
random article in category. This greatly reduces the potential of
education like API, and Wikipedia as a whole.
This is usually not a problem withcategories in which less than 500
catmembers, but to select a random article in categories, wich have
more than hundreds of thousands of catmembers becomes impossible!
Special: RandomInKategory is not a convenient solution for the
developer, since it does not allow to receive pageid and makes writing
a lot of redundant code to get things that are otherwise easily
accessible via the api.
Can we expect that this feature will be available through the API?
I don't know, but if you'd like to be notified of updates then follow
