You generally need admin permissions to view that stuff. It's not an API-specific limitation.

Hi,

I am trying to fetch the deleted revisions of a page using API, but meet an error saying that "You don't have the permission to view a page's deleted history". I wonder if it is caused by my inappropriate operation, or just the feature has been blocked by Wikipedia? Thank you!
