Web browser: --- Bug #: 42407 Summary: MediaWiki API results Product: Wikimedia Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: General/Unknown AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: r...@dialoge.info Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: --- The Learning Management System Moodle is using the Media Wiki API for searching Mediawiki Commons content. Users in Moodle systems can use the search to include sources from Commons into their courses. During a discussion with Wikipedia Germany we found that the information about author and licence is not transfered into Moodle after selecting a search result. The Wikipedia licence defines that author and licence have to be added if the sources are used anywhere else. The Moodle developer wrote that the API didn't transfer these data. There is an entry in the Moodle bug tracker at http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-22756. The Moodle program code for Wikiemedia Commons repository plugin is available here: http://git.moodle.org/gw?p=moodle.git;a=tree;f=repository/wikimedia. They are connecting to http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php Are there any processes to get these required data or can you expand the API functions. Cross posting in Moodle bug tracker will be ok. I will will add an information at Moodle bug racker aboutthis post.
