Yes, it indeed currently reads only the first line. I'm going to see what kind of magic I need to use.

Show 5 quoted lines

Good idea, doing it right now

Show 5 quoted lines

Yes I tried uri_escape, but that only works in the direction mediawiki -> git. A page named "Eté" on mediawiki comes as a Et%C3%A9.mw file on the repo. However, when I try to send that file "Et%C3%A9" with the mediawiki API, I get this error

"Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/MediaWiki/API.pm line 554."

So I tried to backslash the '%' but it does not do it... Any idea ? Thanks
