Dear Soumya!
I'm going to try to explain my question, when I said "content" I wanted to
say the column "page_content_model" of the table "page" in the
database.
This column is like a real text on the page. (wikitext format)
For example, if I have a page named "Main page" and in the body is written
"This is my page" I want to get this sentence.
We want to make a wiki with code about an app that the company is
developing and the idea is to make a plug-in which the developer can choose
different options and a fiel with code will be created (with the wiki's
information).
I thinked an option is read the page literally, that is, to take the html
code and clean the tags, but I don't know if there is another posibility
more elegant.
I hope that is clear.
Regards,
Elisa

Dear all
I have one confusion and would be extremely grateful if some clarification
is offered.
https://en.wikipedia.org//w/api.php?action=query&format=xml&
prop=revisions&titles=Sachin_Tendulkar&rvprop=ids%7Ctimestam
p%7Ccomment%7Cuser&rvlimit=30&rvdiffto=prev
This is a api request I prepared using mediawiki sandbox tool to get 30
sequential edits for the page Sachin Tendulkar. If you run the query in
your browser you will see a diff field for each edit
which probably is the difference between past and current edit. Here
revision content field is false
https://en.wikipedia.org//w/api.php?action=query&format=xml&
prop=revisions&titles=Sachin_Tendulkar&rvprop=ids%7Ctimestam
p%7Ccomment%7Cuser%7Ccontent&rvlimit=30&rvdiffto=prev
This is the same request with content filed true
Now What I see is that for all 30 revision content field is more or less
same and right now I am not able to understand what is the reason for the
content field. If you know anything regarding this please let me know , I
am also trying to understand this field.
Regards
Soumya
