so my question is:
what is the most direct access for:

* writing/uploading a edited source

if there is no other possibility i can also access the the editing-
pages in wikipedia and extract the source of a page from there,
but i hope there is also an other way!
There's pywikipediabot which should be able to do anything you want.
no need to write something new
yes i know, but i cannot speak python (yet) ;)
and i what to write the bot in php, i know php well...
does anyone know here how does pywikipediabot accesses to the
source code?
There is no API, it's just as a browser would, through HTTP.
