Hi,

What is the format of timestamps and how can ordinary times be converted to them?

for example lestart - The timestamp to start enumerating from. leend - The timestamp to end enumerating.

I tried this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=logevents&lestar... attempting "200701310001" to mean "2007-01-31, 00:01"

but the results say <api> <query-continue> <logevents lestart="20070709042252" /> </query-continue>

I had a bit of a look at the api code and found reference to TS_UNIX and TS_MW, and I had a look at wfTimestamp, but it's all a little bit too terse for me to figure out what's going on.

I took a guess and used this site http://www.onlineconversion.com/unix_time.htm to convert my time to a unix timestamp, and lo & behold, the API worked. :)

So are we supposed to convert their timestamps to unix timestamp format before they use api.php? Or is there a "human readable" way?
