History

Get an entry’s revision history

The entry’s public revision history, newest first, a page at a time: the history kept from the old wiki and every edit made since. Hidden and deleted revisions are never listed, and an editor is named only if they chose to be. A merged entry’s key answers with that entry’s own history, and merged_into names the entry it became. An entry whose history has been hidden answers 404.

Any origin may read it: Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, methods GET and OPTIONS, no credentials. An OPTIONS preflight answers 204. No key is needed. A request that sends one (Authorization: Bearer) has it checked, so a wrong, revoked or expired key is refused 401, and is counted against the key’s read limit; it gets the same answer, marked no-store.
