Summary: API should provide DISPLAYTITLE information
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.15-svn
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: API
AssignedTo: roan.katt...@home.nl
ReportedBy: mrzmanw...@gmail.com
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com, vasi...@gmail.com
It would be nice if the title produced by the DISPLAYTITLE magic word (when
present) could be retrieved through the API. This could be useful for things
that create user-read content, so that they can use the correct title, not
whatever is being substituted by title restrictions (iPod for example).
The information is currently only stored in parserOutput, so it would probably
have to be an option on action=parse.
The only way to get this information now is by looking for it in the page text,
which, besides being inefficient, breaks if wrapper templates are used around
the magic word (like enwiki uses).
