Sound like a very old bug, I've heared from years ago. Use login.py before you use a
script. Might be it helps.

Betreff: [pywikibot] Help me get back to business
Hi all,
I couldn't use my bot for 2 years now, first the SVN->git transition, then
the new core/compat system messed up everything, meanwhile the Hungarian
toolserver stopped with my automated bots, and I became a workoholic in my
new job...
Now I try to get back, I have to restart almost from scratch, to make my ow
and modified scripts work with the framework.
What I did:
1. Downloaded and unpacked compat from nightlies.
2. Copied my old user-config.py and family files and my own utis module to
it.
3. Started my version of replace.py (it does some things for me that are
not in the framework).. I quit without editing, that means the bot had to
refresh only its own log page.
Before updating the log page it asked for my password.
*Password for user BinBot on wikipedia:huNo characters will be
shown:Logging in to wikipedia:hu as BinBot via API.Should be logged in
nowUpdating page [[Szerkeszt?:BinBot/munka]] via API*
After this my IP appeared in page history instead of the bot's name. How is
that possible? I never experienced this.
