Hi guys, i'd like to receive all the editors of a page, without the revision information.

E.g.

Author of the current Revision of a page.

• the authors of all revisions of a page.

Additionally i want to prevent, that the query returns a query-continue tag. Is this possible? Like the parse-Query does. If this is not possible, i must guarantee, that the query will be fast.

Any hints to construct such a query?

The only way you can do this is by using api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&rvprop=user&titles=Albert_Einstein&rvlimit=max , but that'll just return the list of revisions with each entry truncated to just list the author. This means the same author can be listed multiple times (once for every one of their revisions) and there can still be a query-continue if the page has many revisions. There is currently no way to get the list of distinct authors through the API, as the associated database query would be inefficient.
