Subject: Problems with revdelete
Original description:
Wikipedia is now using revdelete in everyday use.
This means that content, editor or summaries may be selectively deleted.
pywikipediabot isn't prepared to handle that, and will break throwing an
exception, even if that field isn't needed for the specific action being done.
I encountered it with instances of <contributor
deleted="deleted"/> but
will likely happen with all deleted fields.
If you use -page: generator where it has the contributor deleted, it'll throw
from
xmlreader.py, line 180, in endElement
text, self.username,
AttributeError: MediaWikiXmlHandler instance has no attribute 'username'
MediaWikiXmlHandler instance has no attribute 'username'
If you were using a -xml: generator, it's much more cyptic:
xmlreader.py", line 64, in \_\_init\_\_
self.username = username.strip\(\)
AttributeError: 'bool' object has no attribute 'strip'
'bool' object has no attribute 'strip'
Using r6870.
