Hello,
So, I wanted to have a sorted list of contributors for some page, and I
thought that Pywikibot would be a quick way to achieve that without too
much pain. And indeed, it was even a pleasure to do it.
Attached is a copy of what I wrote. It's really minimalist, but it does
the job.
Now, I'm happy with the service it provides for me, and thought maybe it
could be of some use to someone else. It's really a basic use of the
library, so I'm unsure it is worth to propose to add it in the
repository. Tell me what is your opinion. I don't mean necessarily to
include it /as is/ of course, changes following feedback would be
expected. But given the triviality of the script, would it be of
interest to add it in the list of scripts packaged in the repository?
Cheers
