I noticed the list of deletion reasons includes only the WP:GCSD[1] criteria, while the block only has a standard vandalism message for rationale. The system messages are at MediaWiki:Deletereason-dropdown[2] and MediaWiki:Ipbreason-dropdown, respectively. Could we use these as the presets in the Huggle interface? Maybe even fetch the list every time, as that way it will always be up to date. — MusikAnimal[4] talk[5] 17:02, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Is there some API call that would handle that?

This has nothing to do with the API except that it would use it. Please don't add the API project for such things.

You're probably looking for https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=allmessages&ammessages=deletereason-dropdown|ipbreason-dropdown, possibly with &amenableparser=1 added.
