Hi guys,
I'm sorry to bother you with this question but I could not find any
answer on the mediawiki website.
Is this api intended to be an interface just for manipulating the
wikipedia/wiktionary/wiki* content or is this api also for software
developers to include wiki* content in their software?
(I don't want to abuse the api)
Thanks for your answers
Cheers
Manuel

You can use the api to include wiki content in your software. You
should however make sure that you follow the wiki's license when
reusing content.
However if you have plans to use full scale mirror, you might want to
contact the Wikimedia admins. Also note that in case you don't need
dynamic content, you can also download static dumps from
