Summary: Problem with Tibetan script
Initial Comment:
Here is hard edit war:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Podolsk&action=history . Bots with the old
python version add incorrect tibetan interwiki. And bot with version 2.7.1 do it
correctly.

I meant the output if you type those lines into the python interpreter -
but I've been poking around some more. It does not seem to be JSON related
- or maybe it is, or maybe it isn't it. I think it has to do with some very
old code called 'getall', which gets batches of pages.
Sigh. I would very much like to say: "bad luck, try the rewrite" - I'm
almost afraid to touch that piece of code. I'll see if I can whip up a test
you can run, though, to confirm my suspicions.
In the meanwhile, could you post the output of version.py?
Thanks.

Message:
If I did it right output is 4 files:
__init__.pyc
decoder.pyc
encoder.pyc
scanner.pyc
Are you needing them?
I'm sorry, I'm not the python programmer.

I see, indeed.
Could you post the output of
import query
print query.json.__file__
for your bot? I cannot reproduce the bug, so I suspect it might be due to
a buggy json package. I'll do some package sniffing to check this further.

Same problem have many other bots: my bot, LucienBOT, VolkovBot. All of
them have versions newer than 2.6.5.

My crystal ball suggests:
* Wikitanvirbot is running from the toolserver, which has a patched 2.7.1
without unicode bug
* TXiKiBoT is running an old version of pywikipediabot (there is no
python version in the edit summary) on python 2.6.5+
Conclusion: TXiKiBot should be blocked until its owner fixes his/hers
setup.
