I'm trying to create a tool which runs on top of your API and provides the user with selective data. I've got most of te part figured out but i'm running into one typical problem where TV series are involved. I cannot extract the list of episodes from each season of any series, for e.g The mentalist The url is : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Mentalist_episodes The API url i tried to work with : http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&page=List_of_The_Mentalis...
I'm unable to isolate any of the data. Any ideas on how can i extract just the Episode number, Title and AirDate.
You will have to parse the wikitext yourself, or parse the HTML returned by the query you posted aboved. The API does not handle this sort of thing.
