Hi

As I am informed (and hoping anyone who knows better does correct me):

- re-write branch could be supporting this since the API inferface (and e.g. my bot at some places) does support this may be you should have a look a this branch (and then let me know if this is really the fact) - there are functions to download sets of page contents (also multi- threaded) to reduce the load and they may not handle this well. (in fact this does not reduce the load, but bundle and thus optimize it)

Greetings

Hi, do you think this could easily be solved? Either to add a new section to a page instead of downloading and rewriting the whole one, or to open and save an existing section as we do it without bots. This would decrease the load of the bot as well as the risk of edit conflicts for the bot or for human users.

Summary: Add new section to a page

Initial Comment:
Hi! Wikipedia.Page has now to saving methods, put(newtext) and
put_async(newtext). I ask you to introduce a third one:
newsection(title,newtext). It should work as
...action=edit&section=new, so we shouldn't bother the old content
of the page to add something to the end.

Thanks a lot!
