Hi,

instead of putting a namespace prefix, you have to specify apnamespace=<namespace number> instead

So instead of apfrom=Talk:Foo you would do apfrom=Foo&apnamespace=1

Good morning!

I'm despaired, cause I have some problem with wikimedia api and I really can't find answer.

I am programmer and I try to deal with allPages endpoint.

I try to fetch 500 pages, take apcontinue and once again fetch more 500 pages (from apfrom point).

Everything is ok until the moment I want to fetch something like Somenamespace:Page. I can't send request with colon inside a request. 

Response;

 "error": {

        "code": "invalidtitle",

        "info": "Bad title \"Somenamespace:Page\".",

        "*": "See http://syswiki.gene.com/syswiki/api.php for API usage. Subscribe to the mediawiki-api-announce mailing list at &lt;https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-api-announce&gt; for notice of API deprecations and breaking changes."

    }

Could you help me? I must fetch this page, but I don't know how to do it properly.
