Answer 1

The information content of the Wikipedia change stream is described in https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Recent_changes:

• isMinor indicates that the user marked the edit "minor". Only logged in users can mark edits minor, to avoid abuse.
• isNew indicates that the page is "new", i.e., previously did not exist. It is possible for a change to possess both the "minor" and "new" indicators; this is typically used for new redirects.
• isBot indicates that the edit is made by a bot (an account with bot flag), or that the edit is hidden by an administrator.
• isUnpatrolled indicates that the page is unpatrolled. For more information see the Help topic Patrolled Edit.

Special pages and Talk pages are specific kinds of Wikipedia pages.
