action=parse&summary= broken and complains that text parameter should be passed with title parameter
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

action=parse throws an error when you try to parse a summary: https://de.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=parse&summary=foo&format=jsonfm should parse the contents of the summary parameter (as summary), but instead complains about a missing text parameter: "The text parameter should be passed with the title parameter. Should you be using the \"page\" parameter instead?"

According to blame this is broken since Gerrit Change #20896.

(And when you fix it, can you just add an example for the summary parameter? This is a more or less undocumented feature.)

This does not seem to be the case; the revision before it is broken too. It actually seems to have been broken in r109693.
