I was curious whether this issue would just happen to the rewrite branch, which I mostly use, or if it also concerns trunk. Here's a quick test I did using trunk (revision 10632):
Updating page [[User:Nettrom/sandbox/suggestions]] via API HTTPError: 504 Gateway Time-out WARNING: Could not open 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php'. Maybe the server is down. Retrying in 1 minutes... I did some simple editing tests using my browser, where it appears that it takes the server about 48s to respond with the saved page.
