Manual talk:Maxlag parameter

Move to Manual: namespace?
Any objection to moving this page to Manual:Maxlag parameter? Tizio 16:06, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Usage question
Is it desired that bots should include the maxlag parameter on all requests, or only on those that entail editing the wiki contents? I.e., do read-only requests affect the replication lag? --Russ Blau 18:03, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


 * According to API:Etiquette and this thread, non-interactive bots should always use the maxlag parameter, regardless of the kind of request. --Lucas Werkmeister (WMDE) (talk) 15:54, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

200, not 503?
I'm getting a 200 OK, not a 503, from the English Wikipedia right now for maxlag warnings? See. Jpatokal 22:49, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
