I posted this yesterday about 15 hours ago and don't see it yet, so I'm reposting: I'm new to anything Python related. I downloaded pywikimedia yesterday and am trying to get this to work. This is my dump from api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general|namespaces|namespacealiases|statistics [QUOTE] <?xml version="1.0"?> <api> <query> <general mainpage="Main Page" base= "http://www.locksmithwiki.com/lockwiki/index.php/Main_Page"<http://www.locksmithwiki.com/lockwiki/index.php/Main_Page>sitename="Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base" generator="MediaWiki 1.15.1" case="first-letter" rights="" lang="en" fallback8bitEncoding="windows-1252" writeapi="" timezone="UTC" timeoffset="0" /> <namespaces> <ns id="-2" canonical="Media" xml:space="preserve">Media</ns> <ns id="-1" canonical="Special" xml:space="preserve">Special</ns> <ns id="0" xml:space="preserve" /> <ns id="1" subpages="" canonical="Talk" xml:space="preserve">Talk</ns> <ns id="2" subpages="" canonical="User" xml:space="preserve">User</ns> <ns id="3" subpages="" canonical="User talk" xml:space="preserve">User talk</ns> <ns id="4" canonical="Project" xml:space="preserve">Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base</ns> <ns id="5" subpages="" canonical="Project talk" xml:space="preserve">Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base talk</ns> <ns id="6" canonical="File" xml:space="preserve">File</ns> <ns id="7" subpages="" canonical="File talk" xml:space="preserve">File talk</ns> <ns id="8" canonical="MediaWiki" xml:space="preserve">MediaWiki</ns> <ns id="9" subpages="" canonical="MediaWiki talk" xml:space="preserve">MediaWiki talk</ns> <ns id="10" canonical="Template" xml:space="preserve">Template</ns> <ns id="11" subpages="" canonical="Template talk" xml:space="preserve">Template talk</ns> <ns id="12" canonical="Help" xml:space="preserve">Help</ns> <ns id="13" subpages="" canonical="Help talk" xml:space="preserve">Help talk</ns> <ns id="14" canonical="Category" xml:space="preserve">Category</ns> <ns id="15" subpages="" canonical="Category talk" xml:space="preserve">Category talk</ns> </namespaces> <namespacealiases> <ns id="6" xml:space="preserve">Image</ns> <ns id="7" xml:space="preserve">Image talk</ns> </namespacealiases> <statistics pages="8930" articles="3406" views="87415" edits="15885" images="760" users="264" activeusers="1" admins="2" jobs="0" /> </query> </api> [/QUOTE] This is my current "lockwiki_family.py" file (I removed the commented out lines): [QUOTE] # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- # REQUIRED import config, family, urllib # REQUIRED class Family(family.Family): # REQUIRED def __init__(self): # REQUIRED family.Family.__init__(self) # REQUIRED self.name = 'Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base' # REQUIRED; replace with actual name self.langs = { # REQUIRED 'en': 'www.locksmithwiki.com', # Include one line for each wiki in family } self.namespaces[4] = { '_default': [u'Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base', self.namespaces[4]['_default']], # REQUIRED } self.namespaces[-2] = { 'en': 'Media' } self.namespaces[-1] = { 'en': 'Special' } self.namespaces[1] = { 'en': 'Talk' } self.namespaces[2] = { 'en': 'User' } self.namespaces[3] = { 'en': 'User talk' } self.namespaces[4] = { 'en': 'Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base' } self.namespaces[5] = { 'en': 'Locksmith Wiki Knowledge Base talk' } self.namespaces[6] = { 'en': 'File' } self.namespaces[7] = { 'en': 'File talk' } self.namespaces[8] = { 'en': 'MediaWiki' } self.namespaces[9] = { 'en': 'MediaWiki talk' } self.namespaces[10] = { 'en': 'Template' } self.namespaces[11] = { 'en': 'Template talk' } self.namespaces[12] = { 'en': 'Help' } self.namespaces[13] = { 'en': 'Help talk' } self.namespaces[14] = { 'en': 'Category' } self.namespaces[15] = { 'en': 'Category talk' } self.content_id = "bodyContent" self.interwiki_text_separator = '\r\n\r\n' self.interwiki_putfirst = {} self.interwiki_putfirst_doubled = {} self.interwiki_forward = None self.obsolete = {} self.category_attop = [] self.category_on_one_line = [] self.category_text_separator = '\r\n\r\n' self.categories_last = [] def protocol(self, code): """ Can be overridden to return 'https'.
