Summary: non ascii in system messages and max retry
Initial Comment:
This patch fixed two issues:
1. Ubuntu has non ascii in system messages.
Test:
$ sudo ifconfig eth0 down
$ cat test.py
import wikipedia
site = wikipedia.getSite()
page = wikipedia.Page(site, 'S')
text = page.get()
$ LANG=ru_RU.utf8 python test.py
Error downloading data: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 in position 27: ordinal not in range(128)
Request ru:/w/api.php?inprop=protection%7Ctalkid%7Csubjectid%7Curl%7Creadable&format=json&rvprop=content%7Cids%7Cflags%7Ctimestamp%7Cuser%7Ccomment%7Csize&prop=revisions%7Cinfo&titles=S&rvlimit=1&action=query
Retrying in 1 minutes...
^C
After fix (added "e = unicode(str(e), locale.getpreferredencoding())"):
$ LANG=ru_RU.utf8 python test.py
<urlopen error [Errno 101] Сеть недоступна>
WARNING: Could not open [...]
2. Added raise MaxTriesExceededError when max tries exceeded.

Message:
output should be fixed in output method. Would you please check the
following fix in output method:
def output(...)
...
            try:
                text = unicode(text, 'utf-8')
            except UnicodeDecodeError:
                text = unicode(text, 'iso8859-1')
replace it with
try:
                text = unicode(text, 'utf-8')
            except UnicodeDecodeError:
                text = unicode(text, locale.getpreferredencoding())
