Hello,
I have tried cosmetic_changes.py on some wikis, but it seems to be failing at removing subsequent empty sections. It only removes first empty section. Please see here for example.
I hope this ticket is not a duplicate from a similar issue. ;-)
Thanks!

Hi @Rachmat04, thanks for taking the time to report this!
Which exact Pywikibot version do you use?
Hi @Aklapper. It seems I'm using pywikibot 3.1.dev0.

Hello @Rachmat04, I made a patch for subsequent sections and soon this will be fixed, but I saw a section with only a * too in your example, which is still not removed by Pywikibot's cosmetic changes. I think these could be removed too, am I right?
Hello @Dvorapa. Thank you for the patch!
but I saw a section with only a * too in your example, which is still not removed by Pywikibot's cosmetic changes. I think these could be removed too, am I right?
Yes, I think so. That would be good if pywikibot can remove empty lists from the article as well.

All we discussed should be fixed now, if you encounter any problems after the patch, please feel free to create a new task here.
