Hi All, Will the useformat=mobile be supported by MediaWiki API where appropriate?
I am able to do the following for non mobile content $.getJSON('http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&page=%27+encodeURICompone...', function(json) { // do stuff });
It would be nice if adding the parameter useformat=mobile would get the json object of the mobile page content
like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page?useformat=mobile&format=json
but this link returns a file containing a json object of the page content
Regards,

useformat=mobile is provided by the MobileFrontend extension. If you would like to have API support for it, please file an enhancement request against MobileFrontend at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/ .
