Hello, of course it's okay to use the contents of the wikipedia databases for your tools, but it's not wanted, that every article could be fully accessed from outside. The wiki source is a border case, but this isn't good, too. The problem is not technical, the problem is, that Wikimedia Deutschland would be a "Diensteanbieter" (service provider) of all contents of the wikipedia... I think some german people only wait for sue Wikimedia Deutschland for some content ;).
That's right. I would prefer a simple password (1 for all toolserverdevs), which must be insert in the GET-String, to get the text. So normal outside-user will be out, and toolserverdevs will be in easyly.
