TASK DESCRIPTION
In the docs it is mentioned that `-random` without any parameters should give
10 pages.
> **-random** Work on random pages returned by [[Special:Random]].
Can also be given as "-random:n" where n is the number of pages to be returned,
otherwise the default is 10 pages.
> **-randomredirect** Work on random redirect pages returned by
[[Special:RandomRedirect]]. Can also be given as "-randomredirect:n" where n is
the number of pages to be returned, else 10 pages are returned.
But in reality it gives infinite pages.
Example:
$ python ../pywikibot-core/pwb.py download.py -ns:File -random
