I am not really proficient with that either ; but yes I used Xpath in two projects (one prototype Wordpress extension [1], one draft Zotero plugin [2]) before to retrieve Commons metadata. Seems to me it’s less shaky. For a good example see the (better) one made by Zotero folks : < https://github.com/zotero/translators/blob/master/Wikimedia%20Commons.js> And yes, as Derk-Jan says, do remember we can re-markup everything if needed :) -- Jean-Fred [1] Just overviewed that one: < https://github.com/CommonsOnCMS/CommonsOnCMS/blob/master/wp-wikimedia/wp-wikimedia.php > [2] < https://github.com/JeanFred/translators/blob/master/Wikimedia%20Commons.js> _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
