I'm not entirely sure if I understand your use case, but I'd you're trying
to have the code academy site make the api call to mediawiki, the way to do
that is with OAuth.

However, if the entire application lives in JavaScript and you don't have
access to call the api through the code academy servers, our version of
OAuth isn't set up for that yet (that would require public app support,
which we don't do yet).

So maybe look into OAuth?
