[Developers] [site-feedback] [feature] Article text

I'm seeing the exact same thing. For any article guid I retrieve from
freebase, I can request the blurb, but the raw service constantly  
gives me
a 400 Application Error. I've gone back through the list archives, and
every example of a 'working' trans/raw query is also giving me errors.

For instance, the Uma Thurman article blurb can be retrieved with:

http://www.freebase.com/api/trans/blurb/guid/9202a8c04000641f800000000008c306

but the raw request (http://www.freebase.com/api/trans/raw/guid/9202a8c04000641f800000000008c306 
) fails.

Am I doing something wrong, or has Freebase changed something in the  
blob store?
