When using the API sandbox, I tried to generate, with action=parse, title=Kanichar and all props selected: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=xml&title=Kanichar&prop=text%7Clanglinks%7Clanguageshtml%7Ccategories%7Ccategorieshtml%7Clinks%7Ctemplates%7Cimages%7Cexternallinks%7Csections%7Crevid%7Cdisplaytitle%7Cheaditems%7Cheadhtml%7Ciwlinks%7Cwikitext An exception is thrown.
The exception: internal_api_error_MWException Exception Caught: Internal error in ApiResult::setElement: Bad parameter
The stack trace: #0 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiBase.php(1255): wfDebugDieBacktrace('Internal error ...') #1 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiResult.php(149): ApiBase::dieDebug('ApiResult::setE...', 'Bad parameter') #2 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiResult.php(180): ApiResult::setElement(Array, '*', NULL) #3 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiParse.php(282): ApiResult::setContent(Array, NULL) #4 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiMain.php(692): ApiParse->execute() #5 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiMain.php(358): ApiMain->executeAction() #6 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/includes/api/ApiMain.php(342): ApiMain->executeActionWithErrorHandling() #7 /usr/local/apache/common-local/php-1.18/api.php(115): ApiMain->execute() #8 /usr/local/apache/common-local/live-1.5/api.php(3): require('/usr/local/apac...') #9 {main}
Narrowed down the request: /w/api.php?action=parse&format=xml&title=Kanichar&prop=wikitext This still generates the exception.

Happens on many pages, $this->text is null
Actually, it was broken in the very revision prop=wikitext was introduced, r81124.
(In reply to comment #7) > Actually, it was broken in the very revision prop=wikitext was introduced, > r81124. Trololol. I have a fix, just not sure if it's the best
Actually, you shouldn't be using Title in this case You want page 'title' => 'Title of page the text belongs to', 'page' => "Parse the content of this page. Cannot be used together with {$p}text and {$p}title", http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=xmlfm&page=Kanichar&prop=wikitext Title is so you can "create" a page, and use that as the title against arbitary text If you do that properly, then http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&format=xmlfm&title=FooBarLolBaz&prop=wikitext&text=0
