Hello Guys, Can you please tell me how can I get the particular City data in json format? I am using this url https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Bengaluru&pro... https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&titles=Bengaluru&prop=revisions&rvprop=content&format=json to get the Bengaluru city about but it is showing something else.
Thanks in advance Deven Bhooshan
Hi Deven,
The 'Bengaluru' page on English Wikipedia is a redirect to 'Bangalore.' You can add the 'redirects' parameter to your query to follow redirects in cases such as these and get the content you're after:

Happy querying! mdh
