added example code that uses the urls

[wikipedia-api-cdsw] / wikipedia-raw1.py

import simplejson as json
from urllib2 import urlopen

wp_call = urlopen('https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=revisions&titles=Main_Page&rvlimit=100&rvprop=timestamp|user&format=json')

response = json.loads(wp_call.read())

for page_id in response["query"]["pages"].keys():
    page_title = response["query"]["pages"][page_id]["title"]
    revisions = response["query"]["pages"][page_id]["revisions"]

    for rev in revisions:
        print page_title + "\t" + rev["user"] + "\t" + rev["timestamp"]
