[14:26:12] <yeryry>	 Is the only way to get the creator of an article from the API to get the first revision and get the username from that?
[14:26:25] <Reedy>	 Pretty much
[14:28:20] <yeryry>	 Would have been nice if Info or maybe Contributors could have just given that...
[14:33:49] <yeryry>	 Or even a flag to Revisions to return the first revision along with any others
[14:40:31] <Nemo_bis>	 "Creator of a page" is not really a thing for MediaWiki.
[14:40:56] <Nemo_bis>	 What makes you think the author of the first (recorded) revision for a page should have special value in a MediaWiki wiki?
[14:41:46] <yeryry>	 Well yeah, but it's included in e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&action=info
[14:42:05] <Nemo_bis>	 (Related: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T20209 , https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T29629 )
[14:42:54] <Nemo_bis>	 Yes, with a link next to it which provides context.
[21:56:22] <akoopal>	 Hi, if you ping somebody with Echo, is there any way to see it worked?
[22:01:30] <MatmaRex>	 akoopal: in Preferences → Notifications, you can check "Successful mention" to get a notification yourself every time you mention someone. if you already sent a notification without having that option checked, no, you can't see if it worked :(
[22:02:44] <akoopal>	 MatmaRex: thanks, enabled for next time :-)
[22:03:32] <akoopal>	 I have a template signature, when I want to ping somebody, I try to add an extra link to enable the ping.
