Wikipedia
TRY ASKING
1Request
stringRequired

Exact article title as on the wiki, for example `Marie_Curie` or `Marie Curie`. Case-sensitive: Wikipedia titles start with a capital letter. From a URL such as https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie, use the part after /wiki/.

string

Wikimedia project identifier: language code plus project code, for example `enwiki` (English Wikipedia), `frwiki`, `dewiki`, `enwiktionary` or `eswikivoyage`. Defaults to `enwiki` when neither project nor language is given. `reference/projects` lists every identifier.

string

Wikimedia language code, for example `en`, `fr` or `zh-yue`. Returns the article from any project in that language; combine with project to pin one wiki.

string[]

Return only these fields, in dot notation, for example `name`, `abstract`, `url`, `version.identifier`. Omit for the full record. Wikimedia returns exactly the fields named. Separate values with commas.

number

Most matching articles to return, 1 to 10. More than one only helps when no project is pinned and the title exists on several wikis.

Ready-made Firecrawl tools that call Wikipedia.

Uses Cars & Bids, Wikipedia, NHTSA vPIC vehicle decoderClassic consignment listing prepUse when a consignment specialist at a classic or enthusiast car dealer is preparing an online auction listing. Reads recent sold auctions of the same model, the questions and objections commenters raised on them, similar live auctions, and model history for the write-up, then drafts what the listing must show and a reserve guide.6 toolsOpen
Uses Discogs, Wikipedia, TrendsSync placement track shortlistUse when a music supervisor needs licensable tracks for a scene set in a specific era, genre or place. Searches the record catalogue by style and year, traces original labels and reissues to find who controls the master, checks whether the track or artist is already overexposed in search, and reads the artist background for rights history.5 toolsOpen
Uses ESPN, WikipediaLoan player progress reportUse when a football club's loan manager needs the monthly report on players out on loan. Reads each player's appearances and stats at the loan club, the loan club's fixtures and league position, who competes for the same position on that roster, and background for context, then writes a status per player.6 toolsOpen
Uses Trends, Particle, WikipediaSeasonal content calendar from search historyUse when an SEO lead or content strategist plans next quarter's editorial calendar and needs to know when each topic really peaks. Reads five years of search interest to find each topic's seasonal window, the rising questions to target, whether podcasts pick the topic up before search does, and reference facts to anchor hub pages, then writes a dated content calendar.4 toolsOpen
Uses ESPN, MLB Baseball Savant, WikipediaBeat writer postgame notes packUse when a sports beat writer has minutes after the final whistle to file and needs the notes package.
