Summary: pywikipedia changes encoded tags to their plain equivalent
Initial Comment:
It was reported that the pywikipedia framework changes HTML entites into their plain
character equivalents.
See the diffs listed at
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Misza13&oldid=32214…
for why this can be a bad idea.

Message:
Some of these edits looks like cosmetic changes (like cleanup headers for
instance) but it is definitely not: cc is disabled on talk pages and it
doesn't touch html entities like < and &
I guess this is not a standard python bot and these "cosmetic changes" are
implemented with that archiving script.
