Summary: replace.py crashes with wikipedia.py (?)
Initial Comment:
An error occurs when my bot submit the new version of a page to the server, which has
lasted for around two weeks. Due to this error, the bot will stop right after its first
edit, but the page is correctly saved. The error message is as follows:
