Wikipedia Edits Scraper and IP Localizer

The tool scrapes the complete edit history for a specific Wikipedia page. When the tool finds an IP address instead of a user name it will use Maxmind's GeoCity Lite database to resolve the IP address to a geo-location. This tool is inspired on http://wikiscanner.virgil.gr

Input: a wikipedia page (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Wide_Web)

Output: a table with the following columns:

• URL pointing to the specific version of the page
• the time of the edit
• the date of the edit
• a link to the page of the user who edited
• the user name or IP address
• the size of the edit
• the comment accompanying the edit
• bot/using (when a bot or tool assisted user - detected by the phrase 'using ', is encountered)
• city (when an IP address was detected instead of a user)
• country (when an IP address was detected instead of a user)
• country code (when an IP address was detected instead of a user)
• latitude (when an IP address was detected instead of a user)
• longitude (when an IP address was detected instead of a user)

Note: if very little results are returned while you expect more, make sure that the URL you have inputted does not actually redirect to a different Wikipedia page.
