Hi everyone, I'd like to compute user contributions from new accounts only, data that is available from the Wikipedia website under the Special:Contributions page, e.g.,
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&title=Special:Contributions&contribs=newbie I've looked through the API documentation (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php), specifically at the section devoted to list=usercontribs, list=recentchanges, and list=logevents but couldn't figure out any combination of parameters to get user contributions from new accounts only. I thought that http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=logevents&letypes=newusers&lelimit=500 might do the trick but apparently log events are what I'm looking for either. Is it possible to replicate the data from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=50&title=Special:Contributions&contribs=newbie using the API -- and if so, how? Thanks! -Raymond _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-api mailing list Mediawiki-api@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api
