Subject: Bot saves big pages but doesn't know that it was saved
Original description:
The bot can edit \(i.e. the edit is actually made\) a huge page \(>900 KB\), but it gets back an error and cannot proceed:
"""
Updating page \[\[Wikipedia:Bibliotheksrecherche/Anfragen/Archiv/2012\]\] via API
<urlopen error \[Errno 35\] Resource temporarily unavailable>
WARNING: Could not open 'http://de.wikipedia.org/w/api.php'. Maybe the server or
your connection is down. Retrying in 1 minutes...
"""
Run the attached script to see this error.

I remember there was a similar problem with Wikimedia's server configuration some time ago. But I don't know the details anymore...
