I'm writing a script that calls the api about 3 times with different requests.

I wrote it a few weeks ago and had no issues. I ran it probably about a dozen times.

Today I tried to run it and I always get a DDoS protection response. What can I do to prove I'm not trying to do a DDoS attack?

Have you contacted the admin of that website which hosts that wiki?

No, I wasn't sure if it is a mediaWiki thing or an individual wiki. I will try to contact them.

I actually tried it again today and am no longer getting that response. I wonder if it only does that check when there is heavy load or something.
