MediaWiki API/PowerShell

Add links
From Wikiversity

The following code samples demonstrate functions that may be used in Windows Powershell scripts to access the MediaWiki API.

Note: The API has changed since this code was written. Most of it still works, but the parts that use query-continue no longer function correctly. Anyone starting new bot development is encouraged to use Pywikibot instead.
