Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1399/ Reported by: malafaya Created on: 2012-01-17 00:22:50 Subject: Updating complex pages Original description: When updating complex pages, it's common to get a Timeout, because the Wikimedia server does not process and return the page within the expected time. In suchs cases (when a timeout exception is thrown), my suggestion si that pywikipedia should try to fetch the page again and check if there are any differences against the new page to be saved. If not, then it should proceed and not block indefinitely in such pages.
