Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/bugs/1495/ Reported by: harriv Created on: 2012-07-22 17:20:35 Subject: cosmetics_changes.py chokes on big article Original description: I tried to create list of 55000+ page category with category.py and cosmetic_changes enabled. Script seems to hang for a very long time. If cosmetic changes are disable, this doesn't occur.

Here's stack trace when CTRL-C is pressed:
