I am also a developer and know what respect means, so you are the last person to "teach" me what moral values mean. However, I can tell that your tone does not seem friendly, so you need to watch your words before they come to your mouth. I am not begging for anything here, but it is just unreasonable to include the meaningless pageid parameter for deleted pages in the API response. Also, you cannot explain how you would use the archive ID because it has no meaning for API requests. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
