pywikipedia asks for your Wikipedia login. You can register an account on Wikipedia, as well as any other MediaWiki wiki, to assign your edits. When you use pywikipedia, it usually expects you to use an account (instead of editing anonymously).
Note that some wikis may have special requirements for people to run bots; some might require you to ask for a bot status first, and some might disallow you to make changes via the API (I don’t exactly know how it is done on Wikipedia, you’ll need to find that out yourself).
For configuration, please take a look at the
user-config.pyfile inside of the pywikipedia directory. This is where you define on which wiki you are working on (family), and also which username to use (usernames[familyname][language]).See also:
