Close to it. I don't know why the page was created at enwiki to begin with, rather than at MediaWiki.org. Most of the content is also applicable to bots intended to be run on third-party wikis. Leucosticte (talk) 19:21, 11 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Two POST requests or Two requests ?

edit

in paragraph 3.3 we say "To log a bot in using the MediaWiki API, 2 POST requests are needed:" and then we show a GET and a POST so what do we mean ? Two POST requests or Two requests ? Thanks. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 16:16, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
