This week and next week, I'm aiming to work on improving the documentation and tutorials for MediaWiki's web service API. I've already gotten a volunteer to redo
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page and am aiming on getting volunteers to improve the rest of the API: pages on mediawiki.org in the next few weeks. Now would be a great time for you to put feedback and "I wish this covered...." notes on Talk pages. Also, Max Semenik wrote a new GUI tool to help newbies explore the MediaWiki API. It's called the API Query Sandbox. You can try it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ApiSandbox and an improved version (not yet deployed) here: http://mobile-feeds.wmflabs.org/w/index.php/Special:ApiSandbox Please file bugs and enhancement requests in bugzilla.wikimedia.org (Product: MediaWiki extensions, Component: ApiSandbox). We want to make this better.
