Manual talk:Pywikibot/clean sandbox.py

Content is now mandatory in some languages although it could not

We simply could return the English template by default, instead of getting the following errors when the "-text" parameter is missing and the language template undefined in the script (content = {...}).

Error 'NoneType' is not iterable

For a few months this script returns systematically the same error on every sites, even when Pywikipedia is up-to-date:
