Description Nathan Larson 2013-11-09 21:45:58 UTC
People want to get incremental updates of wiki content. It seems that the easiest way to do this would be to leave off pulling content at one rc_id or rv_id and then resume later. However, the way it is set up, you have to do a separate API query for each page. So, I propose that one of the following be implemented:
*list=recentchanges should have an rcprop=content option
*prop=revisions should work without titles being set

See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWikiAnalysis
