RFC: Removal of wgEnableAPI and/or wgEnableWriteAPI      configuration option (Krinkle) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sun, 14 Aug 2011 21:21:13 +0200 From: Krinkle <krinklemail(a)gmail.com> Subject: [Mediawiki-l] RFC: Removal of wgEnableAPI and/or        wgEnableWriteAPI        configuration option To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list        <mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Message-ID: <FE19443B-65F8-4C4C-A5FC-6BABC2618023(a)gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 Hi, This was brought up in bug 30213. The API has been around for a while now and many scripts even started to assume it's presence by default. What we'd like to know: Do you have one of these configuration variables set to false on your wiki ? And if so, what is the reason for this. We'd like to collect some information and motivation on this so that we can make a better decision at removing these and/or helping in finding a solution (if needed) to the problem that is currently being solved by setting these variables to false. Note that no decision has been made, no need to panic :-) Thanks, ?
