I have tested your code, with the bz2 and 7z dumps, and I get titles with None value. The first one is the same error that apperas in my code.<br><br>Reading XML dump...<br>None 2004-10-10T04:24:14Z<br><br>I have the last version of pywikipediabot and Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Apr 16 2010, 13:09:56). Probably, it can be a error of Python or cElementTree. What are your versions?<br>

</div>I have been completely unable to replicate this supposed error. I<br>
downloaded the same kwwiki dump file that you referenced. I loaded it with<br>
xmlreader.XmlDump, ran it through the parser, and counted the number of<br>
XMLEntry objects it generated: 4711. Then as a test I opened the same dump<br>
as a text file and counted the number of lines that contain the string<br>
"<page>": 4711. So the parser is correctly returning one object per page<br>
item found in the file.<br>
<br>
Next I ran the parser again with a script that would print out a message if<br>
any XMLEntry object had a missing title (None or empty string); no messages.<br>
<br>
Then I searched for the specific page entry you showed in your pastebin item<br>
[3]. The result of this test is shown at [4]. In short, it found exactly the<br>
page title you said was missing.<br>
<br>
I cannot explain why your results are different than mine, unless perhaps<br>
you have a corrupted copy of the dump file, or are not using the current<br>
version of xmlreader.py.<br>
