Hi,

I am currently working on a small python library which allows reading and writing articles. Among the features is an (semi)automatic detection of copyright violations.

When an article is written by the script, I remarked that the IP address of my machine shows up in the log. I would prefer it if my username shows up, allowing everyone to contact me easily. Therefore my question: what parameters do I have to send to /w/wiki.phtml in order to appear with my username?

Any help with this would be very much appreciated, thanks in advance,

Marco

P.S. Not sure this is the right list to ask this: could someone please obscure the emails in the list archives? The problem is that by replying many people cite the full email address which shows up in the archive, e.g., see http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikipedia-l/2003-April/009828.html for an example. I already have enough spam in my inbox :-(
