It really bothers me that API isn't capitalized in "Api Documentation" :)

"Python wrapper for Netflix" links to https://github.com/ozgur/python-linkedin

It appears to have been fixed. It now points to https://github.com/jcopenha/pyflix

For the Tumblr API, the link to the client is for our v1 API which has been deprecated in favor of our v2 API.

We have an official python client that I work on when I get time here: https://github.com/tumblr/pytumblr, Though I know there are tons of other awesome wrappers for v2 out there.

This definitely could use a form to submit API wrappers. I used the contact form linked at the top to submit Stack.PY, a Python module for the Stack Exchange 2.1 API, which is available on Launchpad (https://launchpad.net/stackpy) and PyPI (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/stackpy). The SE API documentation is at https://api.stackexchange.com/docs

I always wanted a matrix of code in each language for accessing an API, the way that Rosetta Code shows examples for performing a calculation. I was shocked that there's no REST api category on rosettacode.org (although in fairness there's no http either):

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rest

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rest_api

http://www.google.com/search?q=REST%20api%20site:rosettacode...

I would very much like a language-agnostic way to tie all of these APIs together!

I think all the "You are missing X" comments suggest that the OP is on to something. Great idea!

Thanks. I will add the Evernote API later tonight

How can we add to the list?

I will work on that! For now, just use the contact form or Twitter (https://twitter.com/pyapis)

Yeah, it'd be nice to be able to submit an API. Like for Trello: https://bitbucket.org/btubbs/trollop

Thanks for the URL. I will look into that.
