this explanation should be in the documentation ;)
anyway I guess I need to use both of them?
basetimestamp (the timestamp of the revision your edit is based on) should be sufficient. I might be missing something, but I can't think of a scenario where:
1. Get the ID and timestamp of the last revision. 2. Get the text of that revision. 3. Do long-running computation based on that text. 4. POST an edit (resulting from that computation) with basetimestamp set to the timestamp obtained in #1.
will cause a race condition.
