Initial Comment:

python version.py

Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r7897, 2010/01/28, 12:22:31) Python 2.6.2 (r262:71605, Apr 14 2009, 22:40:02) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] ---- If a win32 user uses notepad.exe as an external editor for editarticle.py, notepad may insert 3-byte utf-8 BOM in front of file if it was BOM-free utf-8 file. It causes that pywikipedia affected pages (e.g. by solve_disambiguation.py) contain U+FEFF (decoded BOM), and causes tables broken. (since there is U+FEFF before "{|") http://ko.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=4442519 BOM should be stripped since python open() does not automatically.
