Description P.Copp 2008-10-07 15:52:54 UTC As of now, queries like the above with empty, or like http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=recentchanges&rcnamespace=foo with only invalid multivalue parameters cause an MW-exception in most list= modules. A way to handle that would perhaps be to fall back to the default value or to throw an appropriate api error. Comment 1 Roan Kattouw 2008-10-07 18:24:20 UTC Fixed in r41814.
