Hey folks, Has anyone used Wikipedia''s API with Rails? It looks like it is incomplete (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/API) and doesn''t support REST. All I''m looking to do is pull a summary of an article (a paragraph or so of text) for a topic I supply. Cheers, Dan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
