Sorry, as far as I know it's not possible to achieve what you want via the API. Can't you use one of the supported output formats https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Data_formats#Output? If you absolutely need raw text, a Labs tool could be set up for that.

Yes something like that but without the markup, just clean text. I can't imagine that there is no setting like this. There has to be hasn't it?

Without JSON? Do you mean action=raw <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Douglas+Adams&action=raw>, maybe? But that contains wiki markup.

Without wiki-stuff, without html, without pictures, without json. Just clean text. I can't seem to find this exact solution. Best regards Mikoto Use the TextExtracts API <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:TextExtracts#API>. For example, this query <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Douglas+Adams&prop=extracts&explaintext=1&exintro=1> returns the lead section of the English Wikipedia article Douglas Adams <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Adams> in plain text.
