Hello.
You're looking for the Page.latestRevision() function here:
nicd...@host:~/pywikipedia$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Oct 5 2008, 19:24:49)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import wikipedia
Checked for running processes. 1 processes currently running,
including the current process.
>>> mainpage = wikipedia.Page(wikipedia.getSite('en', 'wikipedia'), 'Main Page')
>>> mainpage.latestRevision()
Getting 1 pages from wikipedia:en...
260905624
But you'll have to code yourself in python to insert it somewhere...
It's sort of a "custom" use.
