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%7Ctimestamp%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%7Ctimestamp%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
