API for retrieving Revision Deleted information
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The Current deletedrevs module of MediaWiki API does not provide any functionality for exporting pages which have been revdeled, nor the index.php accepts unhide=1 when the action parameter is other than view. (e.g. [zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=raw&oldid=18255759&unhide=1] and [zh.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=raw&oldid=18255759&unhide=1]) Therefore, it may be necessary to implement such functions to the API system.

Version: 1.22.0

Related to bug 23005 - except for this I think you want to be able to view revdeleted information rather than revdelete.

Sounds like bug 27747

Sounds like bug 27747

Well, maybe. But we'd also need the same sort of thing for prop=revisions, too, in addition to list=deletedrevs.

prop=revisions already outputted revision deleted version, you will get a userhidden="" or texthidden="", but you cannot unhide it, that is right. There was a try with gerrit 4658.

Other modules like deletedrevs, recentchanges (bug 27748) and filearchive (bug 34926) would skipped such revisions.

I have another issue to fix first, but then I'll fix this.
