Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: General Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Sébastien Rombauts (srombauts) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add the get_redirect argument to categories() & templates()

Initial Comment: There is a need to add the "get_redirect" argument (from the "get()" method) to the "categories()", "templates()" and "templatesWithParams()" methods.

This allow for getting categories and templates links from redirect pages, because sometimes they use some. At least do we use a lot of those "categories in redirect pages" to categories acronyms at work into our intern mediawiki installation

Please see the attached patch that I made from the last available svn revision, which currently is r5491.

It is a "svn diff" as short as possible, only 6 lines modified in "wikipedia.py" : each time the add of the argument to the method ("get_redirect=False") then its use when calling the the get() method (get_redirect=get_redirect)

Please note that : * I added this "get_redirect" argument defaulted to "False"(ie. "get_redirect=False") because that way I am sure not to break anything elsewhere. It is up to you whereas to default it to "True" or not. * I added no comments about this new option, solely to reduce the "diff" file. Please let me know if its up to me to add the comment, then I will submit a new fully commented patch.

Best Regards, SRombauts
