API:Information in Wikimedia projects

Wikimedia projects
Everyone is familiar with the Wikipedias in dozens of languages providing encyclopedic content. The Wikimedia Foundation supports many other collections of information: and others. See Our projects on the Wikimedia Foundation site for a complete list.
 * quotations in many languages
 * user-curated travel information in several languages
 * dictionary material in many languages

Access to project information
You use the same APIs to access all this content:


 * You can link to articles.
 * Display article HTML in your own application using a fast caching API called RESTBase.
 * Get information about articles using the MediaWiki "action" API, as explained in Page info in search results, and display these snippets of information.

To deal with languages, Wikimedia's sister project Wikidata maintains "sitelinks" between all these different ventures in different languages.
