Hi there,
I'm using the API to extract the raw wiki text from my pages, using the "?action=query&titles=Main_Page&export&exportnowrap" syntax. That works perfectly.
Now I would like to get the templates expanded out in the result, so I use: "?action=query&titles=Main_Page&prop=revisions&rvlimit=1&rvprop=content&rvexpandtemplates", which does the job, as expected, but it also strips out the comments.
My problem is that the comments are meaningful to me (I use them to help process the wiki text in subsequent steps).
Is there a way to expand templates with the API, but leave the comments intact?
Thanks, Kevin

No. There is no facility for that in the software, so the API can't expose it.

Wouldn't
$options->setRemoveComments( false );
work? Could be nice to have a parameter "&keepcomments" for action=expandtemplates..

Hm, I didn't know about that one. I'll look into it.
