Roan Kattouw a écrit : Thanks for the fix. My remark about throttling was that on WMF wikis, the first throttling seems to be a lot longer than 5 seconds. For example, I tried login first with an incorrect password : 1208281294329: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?lgpassword=XXXXX&action=login&lgn… ********** START OF DOCUMENT ********** <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <api> <login result="WrongPass" wait="5" details="Please wait 5 seconds before next log-in attempt" /> </api> ********** END OF DOCUMENT ********** and then with a correct password about 30 seconds later (the first value is the current time in milliseconds) : 1208281326188: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?lgpassword=XXXXX&action=login&lgn… ********** START OF DOCUMENT ********** <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <api> <login result="WrongPass" wait="15" details="Please wait 15 seconds before next log-in attempt" /> </api> ********** END OF DOCUMENT ********** The second attempt was rejected also. and a third time a few minutes later was succesful : 1208281604094: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?lgpassword=XXXXX&action=login&lgn… ********** START OF DOCUMENT ********** <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <api> <login result="Success" lguserid="351003" lgusername="WikiCleanerBot" lgtoken="a1ee70e4974e08a25608384a8f8e6ebd" cookieprefix="frwiki" sessionid="dcea7e2720824df4470f4855a6777892" /> </api> ********** END OF DOCUMENT ********** Nico
