Wikipedia workflow (alternate)

This workflow is broken and returns no results anymore I suspect a reference WIKI API has changed.  It hangs and says please wait loading results.

Thanks for this workflow. Still works fine for me.

 

A couple of adjustments I needed to make in w.py:

 

The span with class "searchmatch" now uses double quotes instead of single quotes, plus the quote html entities weren't replaced. Changing it to the following worked fine for me:

 

return item['snippet'].replace("<span class=\"searchmatch\">","").replace("</span>","").replace("<b>...</b>","...").replace(""","\"")

@Benzi I’ve been using this workflow for years, but it unfortunately broke a while ago (no suggestions, no way to open Wikipedia with search word + Enter). Any chance for you to fix it? TIA.
