Description Roan Kattouw 2008-02-01 15:33:01 UTC 
The idea is pretty clear (per request on the mediawiki-api list): action=render&section=2 should return a rendered version of the 2nd section only.
Comment 1 Dan Jacobson 2008-09-12 09:42:26 UTC 
Also perhaps allow using the anchor name: Pie#Apple : section=Apple.

But what about subsections with the same name? MediaWiki already deals
with this case by appending _1, _2, ... so no problem.

That's bug 15575, which is less related than it seems to be. Adding the section= parameter to action=raw will probably just use a method of Article or Parser (don't remember which one) to get the section text. The real problem in bug 15575 is that that method takes a section number rather than a name.
