Hi,
I use the mediawiki API to download all pages of an arabic wiki (mediawiki version 1.29.2). For download I used the PHP example code provided on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Parsing_wikitext .
To get an information about the images in the wikitext too, I use
prop='wikitext|images'
However, it seems that not all images embedded in the wikitext appear in
$result['parse']['images']
It seems that images which are embedded like [[صورة:H100.gif]] are missing in the image list for a page.
Is that an intended behaviour or a mistake?
Best Sigbert
