Summary: Call to urllib.quote should ensure that parameter are string
Initial Comment:
In last SVN r9142, I had an exception on wikipedia.py:Site::urlEncode call to urllib.quote(value), because value was a long.
I replaced urllib.quote(value) with urllib.quote(str(value)) and everything went ok.
There may be other similar calls needing a fix.
Hope this help.

Message:
You tried to put a long int instead a text to a page object like
import wikipedia as wp
site = wp.getSite
page = wp.Page(site, 'myPage')
page.put(1234567890)
Putting a long int causes this error.
Please check your script unspam.py.

Please give us the traceback of that error. It makes more sense to fix the
wrong calling parameter instead of fixing its type
