Wikipedia integrations

Connect Wikipedia to any other app, or use it from your AI client over MCP. The MediaWiki Action API is the read and write interface behind Wikipedia and other MediaWiki wikis. Callers can search articles by keyword, retrieve a page's wikitext, HTML extract, summary, categories, links, images and revision history, resolve redirects, list pages in a category, fetch random pages, and get page views and page info. It also supports listing recent changes and querying across language editions. No credentials required.

Questions

Wikipedia, answered

Is there a Wikipedia MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Wikipedia. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server, sign in once in your browser, and your client can build, test and run automations that use Wikipedia. Nothing to install.

What can your agent do in Wikipedia?

Any of Wikipedia's 8 actions, including Convert HTML to wikitext, Convert wikitext to HTML, Find pages by search term and Get citation data. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Which apps can Wikipedia connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Wikipedia with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
