Description

For revision visibility updates and other revision info retrieval it would be great to provide a /page/revision/{revision} entry point. A GET with a no-cache header set can be used to refresh revision information from the MW API (normally done through the RESTBaseUpdateJobs extension).

Additionally, for consistency, /page/revision/ should list revisions.

Later, we could consider exposing individual revision properties at /page/revision/{revision}/someprop.

Note: we discussed the API structure in a meeting and concluded that we need to restructure it in order to allow for easier branching and future functionality additions. Henceforth, the API structure will be:

/page/ - lists the props
/page/title/ - lists all of the titles
/page/title/{title} - get metadata about a specific page
/page/html/{title}{/revision} - get HTML for title (and/or revision)
/page/data-parsoid/{title}{/revision} - get data-parsoid for title (and/or revision)
/page/revision/ - list all of the revisions
/page/revision/{revision} - get attributes for a revision
