This script was pretty broken. I have fixed this a bit so you can
use "-justshown" option to fetch images from your wikipage.

This script does not understand the concept of description pages
(it thinks that everything ending in .png and .jpeg is an image),
so if you try to use it with "-shown" or without an option
it will try to download "/wiki/File:Image.png" description
pages too.

Anyway, r9525 should work at least to let you download the images 
displayed on this page - which is probably what you want.
