Options for MediaWiki.get

[zverok]

There's a few of them seeming extremely useful:

Section

wikipedia.get('Argentine', section: 0) # sends rvsection=0 param

Allows to extract and parse only part of the page, which can be a major speedup if you definitely know you need only infobox.

Revision date

wikipedia.get('Argentine', before: '2010-01-01').infobox.fetch('leader_name1') 
# => Argentian president in 2009

Using rvstart/rvend (timestamp parameters), we can receive historical versions of actual information
