Hello all,
I am happy to announce the beta release of the Wikimedia REST Content API at
Each domain has its own API documentation, which is auto-generated from Swagger API specs. For example, here is the link for the English Wikipedia:
Could the RSD document EditURI points to be updated to include a reference to an individual wiki's base path in the REST api.
ie: en.wp's RSD would have a new <api> with an apiLink="https://rest.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/"
Ideally there would be a <docs> pointing to documentation but there's no link that would work since <docs> shouldn't point to v1/?doc and there's no non versioned ?doc page.
Alternately you could include -v1 in the api name="", use apiLink="https://rest.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/v1/" and point <docs> to `https://rest.wikimedia.org/en.wikipedia.org/v1/?doc%60.
That might actually be a better idea since you won't need to provide an API to let code performing discovery know which versions of the API are supported.
