- Close to it. I don't know why the page was created at enwiki to begin with, rather than at MediaWiki.org. Most of the content is also applicable to bots intended to be run on third-party wikis. Leucosticte (talk) 19:21, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hmm, ok, was just wondering :) --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 21:08, 11 October 2014 (UTC)
Must Bot Login for Reads?
[edit]Re https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Creating_a_bot#Logging_in
i think i read that, since MW 1.27, bots need to login for reads. Correct?

Two POST requests or Two requests ?
[edit]in paragraph 3.3 we say "To log a bot in using the MediaWiki API, 2 POST requests are needed:" and then we show a GET and a POST so what do we mean ? Two POST requests or Two requests ? Thanks. -- Christian 🇫🇷 FR (talk) 16:16, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
