Hi, | |||
I need to batch download and upload images from this wiki. All proper attribution will be done (a link to the home page to the image). | |||
Doing this will help me not to download images myself and that will take hours to do. | |||
Thanks, | |||

:You get access to writeapi after becoming [[SW:USER|autoconfirmed]], and it's not too much to ask that you've been here for a couple days as a registered user before you get it. We have the autoconfirmed user group to protect us from spam and vandalism, so I don't see why the ability to automate that unwanted behavior should be given earlier. Aren't you autoconfirmed by now anyway? — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 02:07, 31 July 2010 (UTC) | |||
:: Also, the writeapi isn't the problem when doing a batch upload/download. The error message you get when you try doing that is "Unrecognized value for parameter 'action': upload", and api.php doesn't list that as one of the valid actions. --[[User:Sigma 7|Sigma 7]] 15:48, 2 September 2010 (UTC) | |||
