MZMcBride <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] Status|RESOLVED |REOPENED Resolution|WONTFIX | --- Comment #2 from MZMcBride <[email protected]> 2009-03-04 09:55:31 UTC --- Re-opening this for now. Looking through the API code history, I see r29244 (a revert by Brion that removed ApiChangeRights.php). In r32522 Roan removed the module from ApiMain.php. However, I don't see any indication in either of those revs (or on this bug) that a WONTFIX is the best option here (or desired). Making anyone rely on screen-scraping (God's curse on humanity) should be avoided in nearly every case. If a user can delete, protect, block, etc. with the API, changing user rights doesn't seem like too large a step up. Re-opening for re-consideration and/or clarification. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
