   • Wikipedia API - get random page(s)

     You're close. generator=random is the right way to go. You can then use various prop values to get the info you want:

     • Page title is always included.
     • To get the text, use prop=revisons along with rvprop=content .
     • To get all images used on the page, use prop=images .Note that this will often include images you're probably not interested in, like icons and flags. To fix that, you might try instead prop=pageimages , though it doesn't seem to work always. Or you could try using both.

     So, the final query could look like this:

     https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?format=json&action=query&generator=random&grnnamespace=0&prop=revisions|images&rvprop=content&grnlimit=10

     jsonData['query']['pages'] is ordered by page ID, not by search relevance. This is a limitation of using generators. You need to use the index property to find the actual first search result:

     results = jsonData['query']['pages']results.sort(key = lambda x: x.get('index'))pageData = results[0]

   • Wikipedia: How to get the number of page visits for all pages

     There is an API specifically for collecting page view data. See https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/AQS/Pageviews for details and examples. If I understand your question correctly, then changing the dates in this call will give you the desired results, although you will need to sum daily values: https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/metrics/pageviews/aggregate/en.wikipedia/all-access/all-agents/daily/2015100100/2015103000

   • Wikipedia API for Python: how can I get the item ID from a corresponding page?

     Top Answer

     Answered Apr 15, 2021 · 0 votes

     I ended up using the requests library to use the Wikipedia REST API directly. Including prop=pageprops will return the item ID, which is shared across different languages.

     import requests as rq-request_str = 'https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageprops&titles=Cher&format=json'resp = rq.get(request_str)resp.text.split('wikibase_item":"')[1].split('"')[0]> 'Q12003'fr_str = 'https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=pageprops&titles=Cher_(artiste)&format=json'fr_resp = rq.get(request_str)fr_resp.text.split('wikibase_item":"')[1].split('"')[0]> 'Q12003'
