hello

For my bot I need to get the full history of deleted article. I noticed that http://XX.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=deletedrevs&titles=[Article Name] doesn't return oversight version even with the sysop rights.

Is it a bug ?

regards

No, it's not a bug.
Oversight revisions are hidden from public view, even from sysops and oversighters.
The revision data is no longer in the revision database but in a seperate database.
