Change Details

As part of this issue, someone pointed out that 'Speciaal:MyPage/zeusmodepreferences.js' is showing up in the top article endpoint (weird) and that if you try to retrieve it from the API, it doesn't work because of the slash in the name (bad): https://github.com/mediawiki-utilities/python-mwviews/issues/3 We can fix the slash in the name thing by requiring article titles to be URL-encoded and decoding them when we look them up, but I thought this was already happening.

We will continue to have problems querying and joining our different data sources unless we act more like mediawiki. So normalizing page titles the same way as mediawiki seems like a good first step.
