Hi,

it seems that documentation about action=edit https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Edit doesn't cover all possible results. I just found that when I tried to save a page which contains an URL to a blacklisted site (when trying to remove the nowiki tags around an URL in an article on frwiki https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ruud_Jolie&oldid=106287645). My program, WPCleaner, didn't warn me of a problem because the answer was not in a format described in the doc: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <api batchcomplete=""> <query> <pages> <page ns="1" title="Discussion:Ruud Jolie/À faire" missing="" contentmodel="wikitext" pagelanguage="fr"> <protection /> <restrictiontypes> <rt>create</rt> </restrictiontypes> </page> </pages> </query> </api>

Is this normal ? Are there other formats for answers ? The documentation only covers answers in the format api/edit/result or the classic error reporting mechanism.

I ended up manually removing the entire link https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ruud_Jolie&diff=113608629&oldid=106287645 .

Thanks, Nico
