Hello,

Stef (in cc) is trying to script pages from europarl.europa.eu into a wiki campaign site: act-on-acta.eu

For some reason the only text written ends up at the root page /api.php, see:

http://en.act-on-acta.eu/index.php?title=Api.php&diff=prev&oldid=187

The training target is one page (per language) at http://en.act-on-acta.eu/Sandbox/HerrNilssons6rdTry

Here is the code using wikitools

from password import USER,PASSWORD    # wikitools approach    import wikitools    site = wikitools.wiki.Wiki("http://en.act-on-acta.eu/api.php")    site.login(USER, password=PASSWORD)    page = wikitools.Page(site,title='Sandbox/HerrNilssons6rdTry')    page.edit(text="=== hello world ===\nHerr Nilsson gets very annoyed")

And here the code using mwclient

from password import USER,PASSWORD    # mwclient approach    import mwclient    site = mwclient.Site("en.act-on-acta.eu")    site.login(USER, PASSWORD)    # Edit page    page = site.Pages['Sandbox/HerrNilssons6rdTry']    #text = page.edit()    #print 'Text in sandbox:', text.encode('utf-8')    #page.save(text + u'\nExtra data', summary = 'Test edit')    page.save("=== hello world ===\nHerr Nilsson gets very annoyed")

Anyone has some helpful tips?

//Erik
