Summary: Wikia:  wikia-credits footer silently added to edits

Initial Comment:
Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r6219, Jan 03 2009, 14:34:49)
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jan 17 2008, 19:35:17) 
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)]

Wikia have modified MediaWiki to add a <div id="wikia-credits">...</div> footer 
to pages.  Although this is a Wikia-specific change, pywikipediabot should 
really ignore it.  It would be easy for a new user to inadvertantly add this 
footer to the page source on a large scale without realising it.  Ideally, 
Wikia would strip the footer again on upload, but they don't do that at present.

Patch attached.
