Created EXAMPLE_TOKEN which replaces all tokens in api examples and also looks like a real token, I think it save a work of many tool developing people since I myself had troubles understanding how real token looks from the api.php descriptions (previous example also contained some charactes which would hardly be inside the string, token is always lower case) Comment: Hah, you're right. Login tokens don't have +\ . Looking at the code it seems we don't reuse the edit token generation function there (which we do use everywhere else) because we explicitly don't want to reuse any edit token that might still be in the session. Pretty much all other tokens will have +\ though. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
