Why does the “sections” property in Python wikipedia package return an empty list?
I can get content of a Wikipedia section if I ask for a specific section, for example:
import wikipedia
print(wikipedia.WikipediaPage('Sleep Well Beast').section("Promotion"))
but when I try to get all the sections, I get an empty list, why?
print(wikipedia.WikipediaPage('Sleep Well Beast').sections)
According to documentation, this should give a list of sections:
https://wikipedia.readthedocs.io/en/latest/code.html#api
python wikipedia
