Description Jesse (Pathoschild) 2009-04-22 06:30:25 UTC 
The API does not list any edits for users blocked with 'hideuser', but Special:Contributions does. Compare the two links below:

http://fr.wiktionary.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=usercontribs&ucuser=Poupoule+clemou
http://fr.wiktionary.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Poupoule_clemou

Ideally the API should list their usercontribs, even if it hides their name in generic lists & logs. (This is particularly relevant to [[m:user:StewardBot]], which checks whether they have edits to suggest unhiding.)
Comment 1 Aaron Schulz 2009-04-22 07:06:42 UTC 
For users with 'hideuser', contribs shows the edits, otherwise it doesn't. So the issue is that the API never shows them no matter what?
Comment 2 Jesse (Pathoschild) 2009-04-22 07:32:23 UTC 
Yep. The API listing the edits for users with 'hideuser' would be ideal.
Comment 3 Roan Kattouw 2009-04-22 09:21:48 UTC 
Fixed in r49732
