[Bowen Yu]

I see. That makes sense. Yes, I was using list=projectpages.

Another question: is Quarry querying against the same data source as API? I
am able to use Quarry to get articles of some task forces (here is the
query I used ), but again, no luck
on wikiproject democratic republic of the congo either.. Any explanation?
Thanks!

That would be the case. list=projectpages depends on something using the
{{#assessment:}} parser function to "tag" the page with the project. On
enwiki this is typically done by Template:WPBannerMeta (specifically,
Template:WPBannerMeta/core), but that template (currently) just does it for
the main project, not for task forces.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query=categorymembers=Category:WikiProject_Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo_articles=max
seems to work fine.

If i were to guess why its not on list=projectpages, id say that
wikiproject democratic republic of the congo is not a full on wikiproject
itself but just a subproject of wikiproject africa.

[Mediawiki-api] Articles of WikiProject Democratic Republic of the Congo

[Bowen Yu]

Hi,

I am trying to get articles belong to WikiProject Democratic Republic of
the Congo. I tried both API calls and Quarry (I guess they shared the same
data source), but did not get any articles back. I wonder if anyone has any
sense what's going for this project in the database? I just used
"Democratic Republic of the Congo" as the query input. Thank you!
