TASK DESCRIPTION
Calls today using pywikibot categorymembers (which uses the API call to
generate category members) or the articles() of a category page, get stuck in
apparent indefinite error 500 loops.
Is this a known transient error, or will this remain unusable?
Example
//site.categorymembers(cat, namespaces=6, member_type=['page', 'file']) //
where //cat = pywikibot.Category(site, "Category: Documents from Library of
Congress Packard Campus")//
and //site = pywikibot.getSite('commons', 'commons')//
this example category only has 208 members at the time of writing.
This is part of trying to fix WMF server outages this past week, where
uploaded files have been posted with no ImagePage text content (i.e. pageid ==
0).
WARNING: Http response status 500
WARNING: Non-JSON response received from server commons:commons; the server
may be down.
Set gcmlimit = ['250']
