At least two steward bots (using stewbot) already access CentralAuth, along with JavaScript run by several stewards. Not creating an API doesn't prevent them from doing so; it just makes things more likely to break, more tightly coupled to the form layout, and more difficult to maintain. For example, this is the rewrite that was needed in stewbot to interact with the overhauled Special:CentralAuth form: < http://github.com/Pathoschild/stewbot/commit/d6ab51587bee8a472185d0980044320c98085df9 >. -- 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
