Thanks for the link Jools. I noticed that you mention that error checking is limited MediaWiki::API->upload. Is this because you are having to parse the HTML returned for error messages? I think I'm going to wait for an official API. It isn't mandatory that we support MediaWiki in our application, it would just be nice for some of our customers.
