I'm running into a problem with article titles
that include ":", e.g.
"Nomad: From Islam to America" (which exists on English Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomad:_From_Islam_to_America ).
Is there a simple and straightforward way to do this?
There should be, but there isn't. imo Page('en', ':Nomad: From
Islam to
America') should just work (but it doesn't). Even this fails:
>> catlib.Category('en', 'Books by
Ayaan Hirsi Ali').articlesList()
Getting [[Category:Books by Ayaan Hirsi
Ali]]...

pywikibot.exceptions.NoPage: Nomad: From Islam to America is not a local
page on wikipedia:en, and the nomad family is
not supported by PyWikipediaBot!
So: I added a bug report for you:
