Description Nicolas Bros CLA 2011-03-19 14:33:01 EDT 
I was trying to use the MediaWiki API to upload screenshots faster to the Eclipse wiki (I find using the "upload" form cumbersome), and I noticed that the wiki uses an old version of MediaWiki (from 2008 apparently) which doesn't support the "upload" action:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/api.php?version=1

Would it be possible to update to a newer version?
Comment 1 Nicolas Bros CLA 2011-03-20 07:05:21 EDT 
I found another way to upload images, through the web form instead of the API.
It is slower and more "hacky" but it works, so I'm closing this bug as "works for me".
