Description Addshore 2013-07-08 11:33:32 UTC 
1:29 PM <liangent> mw.MediaWikiApiError: save-failed: Could not create a new page.
1:29 PM <liangent> It already exists.; request: {'action': 'wbeditentity', 'token': <function <lambda> at 0x13791b8>, 'data': '{}', 'format': 'json'}
1:29 PM <liangent> how can '{}' be existing?

This should give a more informative error about needing the new parameter.
Comment 1 Addshore 2013-07-09 07:46:25 UTC 
The current api doesn't require new= so save-failed is appropriate here.
