xqt, or anbody,
A few minutes ago I uploaded the version I would like to use in wikipedia.py, it may need only cosmetic changes. This version returns the size and the tags of edit filters with the page history.
We in Hungarian Wikipedia use a bot that is run by 2 or 3 users simultaneously, and runs in every 10-30 minutes. This bot now needs the sizes of the page versions because we want to know whether an article was significally shortened to its biggest size. I solved it with fullVersionHistory and len(), which makes the script slow down. That's why I wrote this modification, because MediaWiki does store the size, so we don't need to compute is again and download all the complete versions. Tags are also useful, we plan to use them together with edit filter.
It would be great to have this modification in wikipedia.py so that all of us can use the same version. May I hope you accept my contribution?
Thank you!

Initial Comment: Would it be possible to have the labels made by the edit filters in Page.getVersionHistoryTable, Page.getVersionHistory and Page.fullVersionHistory? There may be several of them for one edit.
