Re: [Semediawiki-user] Delete many pages

[Neill M. <ne...@nl...>]

Wow, you need to delete 10,000 pages? How many pages have you got in 
total? Might be easier to export what you want to keep and zap the database.

I believe you can increase apihighlimits permission for the sysop user 
to return more items.

Cheers
Neill.
