  25  * This file is the entry point for all API queries. It begins by checking
  26  * whether the API is enabled on this wiki; if not, it informs the user that
  27  * s/he should set $wgEnableAPI to true and exits. Otherwise, it constructs
  28  * a new ApiMain using the parameter passed to it as an argument in the URL
  29  * ('?action=') and with write-enabled set to the value of $wgEnableWriteAPI
  30  * as specified in LocalSettings.php. It then invokes "execute()" on the
  31  * ApiMain object instance, which produces output in the format sepecified
  32  * in the URL.
