May be I am wrong, but xqt told me once that the PreloadingGenerator has problems with API. I myself had problems due to deleted (and re- direct) pages with API loading multiple pages at once too.
So my assumption is, this xml parser has indeed problem parsing the deleted (and maybe redirect) pages and thus fails to return them all and so the PreloadingGenerator does not work with API. If I am right with this, the solution to the problem mentioned here can also solve the Preloading with API problem. This would be very nice! But the be sure I would appreciate a comment by xqt on this ;))
Just some thoughts...

I see. Strange... That indeed looks like a parser bug.

Furthermore, if you see the chunk of the dump that I have posted, the page title and page id are there.

Also, the page of the error is not deleted in the wiki.[1] [1] http://kw.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebellyans_Kernow_1497 2010/9/30 Dmitry Chichkov <dchichkov@gmail.com <mailto:dchichkov@gmail.com>> Hi Emijrp, That's "normal". Page id/title can be None/empty for deleted pages. -- Regards, Dmitry On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 9:50 AM, emijrp <emijrp@gmail.com <mailto:emijrp@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi all; I think that there is an error in xmlreader.py. When parsing a full revision XML (in this case[1]), using this code[2] (look at the try-catch, it writes when fails) I get correctly username, timestamp and revisionid, but sometimes, the page title and the page id are None or empty string. The first error is: ['', None, 'QuartierLatin1968', '2004-10-10T04:24:14Z', '4267'] But if we do: 7za e -bd -so kwwiki-20100926-pages-meta-history.xml.7z 2>/dev/null | egrep -i '2004-10-10T04::14Z' -C20 We get this[3], which is OK, the page title and the page id are available in the XML, but not correctly parsed. And this is not the only page title and page it that fails. Perhaps I have missed something, because I'm learning to parsing XML. Sorry in that case.
