Mention User-Agent policy?
I think this page should mention Wikimedia's User-Agent policy and the general principle of using an informative, useful User-Agent in scripts and tools. Thoughts? --MZMcBride (talk) 22:27, 15 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Not really, We should keep MW documentation to be MW specific where possible, not chucking in WMF stuff as well, Although a small note along the lines of "Other communities such as WMF may have access/usage restrictions etc etc etc, For a example of WMF's look at meta: etc etc" wouldn't be too bad. But the bit about informative user-agents for sure. Peachey88 (talk) 23:29, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

New Wikimedia request limits
We should probably mention the new limits added in 241643 on this page, they are Wikimedia specific though. Legoktm (talk) 10:21, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Wasn't that reverted? "50/s, burst of 250" is very low for our standards, I would be very surprised to hear there is a real need for it. Nemo 10:26, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
