"Value was either too large or too small for an Int32."

I'm getting a Int32OverflowExeption when accessing Wikia through your client. Here's my code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Discord;
using Discord.WebSocket;
using System.Linq;
using WikiClientLibrary.Client;
using WikiClientLibrary.Sites;
using WikiClientLibrary.Pages;
using WikiClientLibrary.Wikia;
using Discord.Commands;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using System.Reflection;
using WikiClientLibrary.Wikia.Sites;

namespace EC_Discord_bot_CS
{
    class Program
    {
        public static WikiaSite site;

        private CommandService commands;

        private IServiceProvider services;

        private DiscordSocketClient discordClient;

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            new Program().MainAsync().Wait();
        }

        public async Task MainAsync()
        {
            #region wikia client
            var wikiaClient = new WikiClient
            {
                ClientUserAgent = "Edge-bot"
            };

            try
            {
                WikiaSiteOptions options = new WikiaSiteOptions()
                {
                    ApiEndpoint = "http://theedgechronicles.wikia.com/api.php",
                    WikiaApiRootUrl = "http://theedgechronicles.wikia.com/api/v1",
                };
                site = new WikiaSite(wikiaClient, options, "username", "password"); //yes, I used my real username and password
                await site.Initialization; //Exception here
            }
            catch (Exception EX)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(EX.Message);
            }
            #endregion
     }
}

Here's the Exception message:

I'm stumped as to how to fix this, as the Exception seems to coming from a value that Newtonsoft tried to parse to an Int32 during the Initialization call.

Released v0.6.0. You may update your package dependencies, and try again ^_^

Btw

• You may try using new WikiaSite(WikiClient, "http://theedgechronicles.wikia.com/") for shorter code.
• Don't forget to dispose WikiClient instance in the end.

Thank you very much! It's now working perfectly. Can I dispose the WikiClient after I initialize the WIkiaSite or do I need to keep it until I'm finished making requests?

You need to dispose WikiClient after finishing making all your requests to MediaWiki site; before then, keep it alive. Actually, it's the underlying HttpClient that needs disposal.
