As the Wiki will be moving soon and the API has just changed some. I need a quick list of what parts of the API information on the Evelopedia is out of date and needs to be updated.

For the items that are out of date can someone update them please or direct me to a source where I can pull the information from.

Also do you use the API resources on the Evelopedia? Simple Yes/ No will do.

And what would need to be changed or included to make it easier to use?

All Evelopedia pages are easy to update lets keep it current so everyone has the correct information.

Actually I think most people use http://wiki.eve-id.net/APIv2_Page_Index instead of the stuff from CCP. I find it much easier to go there and if I notice something that's out dated I just log in and make the change and don't have to wait for someone at CCP to decide to review it etc. Plus I like the layout much better :)

All the wiki API pages are unmoderatedLol So feel free to log in like you would to TQ and up date them. Even if its just to add your prefered informaion location to the API primary page.

The question still stands are they so out of date. I need to post an out dated header on all of them or are some correct.
I'll check out the API primary source link you posted, but am afraid I might do more harm then good. copy and pasting the info over to the evelopedia.

Some stuff is out of date (i.e. new calls with the CAK) But all the old info is still good. I just used the Evelopedia to work my way through how to send an API Key to the servers and get information back. Keep in mind that I am a complete noob when it comes to programming of any sort, so I don't know if all of the stuff there is still functional.

Most of the Evelopedia info will still be correct but it is outdate for CAK. Also it's missing most of the newer APIs. And if what you say is true now and it's unmoderated then how's that any different than the site I linked? The third party development community have been adding to and improving the other site for years now so it has many things that you still can't find on CCP site which will probably stay that way simple because all the main developers still prefer it and I would say will for a long time. If the official site ever managed to catch up you might see people move over to using it but it hasn't happened with it being available for over a year now so just not likely to change any time soon IMHO
