Something that should be noted is that the 500/5000 limit in the API applies to each query separately, and since there are 34 query types in core (extensions like FlaggedRevs and GlobalBlocking provide even more), even a non-sysop user could get up to 34*500=17,000 results in one request. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
