I’m one of the components of a university group in Pisa. We are working about gathering information, such as the number of characters, gender of people, etc., and re-create the social network inside marvel universe.

We have this issue, we can’t acquire the entire list of characters available: it seems like there is a limitation imposed by wikia platform. Is it possible? Our query is the following: “http://marvel.wikia.com/api/v1/Articles/List?expand=1&category=Characters&limit=50000” but we can not obtain more than 13000 characters (circa). We are working with python, compiler 2.7, using Pycharm IDE.

We will be very glad to receive you answer! Thank you very much.
