Hi,

I've posted this also on the API:Edit talk page
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API_talk:Edit#How_does_%22recreate%22_parameter_works_%3F

 Apparently, without this "recreate" parameter, an article can be recreated
even if it was deleted since the retrieval of the basetimestamp. Is this an
expected behavior? From the current description (*Override any errors about
the page having been deleted in the meantime*) I understand that you have
to set it to true if you want to be able to recreate the page, so no giving
this parameter should raise an error. Can you clarify the document and
behavior?

Thanks
Nico
